Set in Montreal, New Tab spans a year in the life of a 26-year-old
video game designer as he attempts to reset his life. Touching on modern
social anxieties, the novel explores our obsession with social media
while chronicling with humor his thoughts on Facebook chats, Concordia
University, bilingualism, good parties, bad parties, a backyard cinema,
running a possibly illegal DIY venue, and the disillusion, boredom,
self-destruction of daily life. Written in a simple yet bold and
astonishing style, New Tab is a profoundly intimate tale of
self-reinvention and ambiguous relationships.
