Historia
Just City is the story of 21-year-old Nathan, who dreams about creating a cool start-up with his friend Jack. To get money for the start-up, Nathan starts playing a virtual reality game as part of a scientific experiment. The game forces Nathan to discover what it is like to be in the skin of somebody else, for whom the cards have been dealt differently. The depressing experiences of playing the game make Nathan question his belief in meritocracy and pick a fight with Jack. What is just, and what do we really deserve?

A truly great human ethics & thought excitement
Revisado: 07-25-23
A wonderful listen that digs into thought-provoking ethics and moral issues that tug on our societies oftentimes lack of empathy. The author explores the human desires to belong and find connections and the struggle that young adults can face trying to set in place a system of personal beliefs, to sort through societal pressures and influences and make sense of the world around them.
Much like my belief that everyone should work a restaurant service job to understand the stress of a seemingly simple low skill job as an exercise is empathy, the opening act introduces a concept of that thought experiment that takes putting yourself into others shoes to the next level.
the narrator effortlessly brings to life the young protagonist with a feel of honest yearning to be a productive part of society and you feel connected through their journey and growth. the outstanding writing and clear language make complicated topics and concepts feel intuitive with the smooth, easy narration style, allowing you to feel you are right along for the ride.
I highly recommend for young adult reading and those that like a lighter side of the "What if" genre of series like Black Mirror.
