Rudy Park - The People Must Be Wired (Paperback)

Rudy Park is the hilarious first collection of the techno comic strip of the same name. Rudy is the new manager of the House of Java Cybercafe and believes in all things Internet, the healing powers of consumption, and the conviction that inner peace lies in having the latest technological gadget. At the cybercafe, Rudy must deal with his new station in life, his entrepreneurial boss, and his irregular regulars, like Mrs. Cohen, the neo-Luddite octogenarian who challenges the technology Rudy cherishes. The cafi is a crossroads, too, for contemporary issues and celebrity and political visitors, such as John Ashcroft (who monitors people from his home inside a pastry container at the cafi), and Senator Tom Daschle (who, afraid to draw too much attention to himself, makes his home under a table). Like the rest of us, the denizens of the House of Java are often flummoxed by the pace of life today and the way the onslaught of technology can take us one step forward and two steps back. When you feel compelled to buy a new DVD player though you never figured out how to program the VCR, you know you will fit right in with Rudy Park and the gang.
