Hypercitizens
The gift of turning deserts into gardens features the emerging new elite, which must not waste its resources feeding those who turn gardens into deserts. The elite of the past needed to control the masses to be in power. The elite of the past needed the mystery of sacred symbols and fear, just like in politics and religion, to scare and control the masses.

This is the key to power for the new elite, who no longer need to control the masses. These new elite live at a very cosmopolitan, global and self-investing level at which life becomes pure abstraction. This high concept, cosmopolitan novel portrays this emerging elite named Hypercitizens. Andrea Pitasi is a university professor, a strategic advisor, an investor and lives the hypercitizen vision and style. www.hypercitizen.com www.andreapitasi.com

Three years ago, Carson's sister ran away. Now he's found her—on a porn site. High-school senior Carson Banks is trying to find out what he wants to do with his life, wanting to move forward, though a part of him is firmly rooted in the day his life changed forever. The day his older sister Caitlin ran away, and disappeared without a trace. Then, he finds her—on an Internet porn site. Deciding that finding Caitlin and bringing her home is the only thing he can do, Carson embarks on a quest that ends up changing him as much as Caitlin seems to have changed herself. Coping with the knowledge that he can't share with the rest of his family—yet—Carson writes thinly veiled autobiographical stories to help himself better understand Caitlin and why she left home. And, while using every opportunity he has to find Caitlin and talk to her, Carson's typical teenage life goes on. Girlfriend. Family. School. Friends. Things he did in the past that he's not too proud of. It's a busy senior year, but he'll count it a win—if he can locate her, learn exactly what happened on the day she left and convince Caitlin to come home.
