All of them are connected in different ways to Nefando,  a controversial cult video game whose purpose remains a mystery. In the parallel reality of the game, players found relief from the pain of past trauma and present shame, but also a frighteningly elastic sense of self and ethics. Is Nefando a game for horror enthusiasts, a challenge to players' morals, or a poetic exercise? What happens in a virtual world that admits every taboo?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnsparing, addictive, and perverse, Nefando takes us to the darkest corners of the web, revealing the inevitable entanglement of digital and physical worlds, and of technology and horror.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1566896894\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781566896894\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Ojeda, Mónica, Booker, Sarah\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Coffee House Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Coffee House Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Oct 2023)","offer_id":46356794081477,"sku":"9781566896894","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9781566896894.jpg?v=1781310740","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/nefando","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
