Manual Automata

Jules Winters is finding the future isn't very nice to him. He's having a really hard time in life. He loses a very special friend on the same day he almost gets arrested and sent to jail. But a woman, no, a girl named April with more money than he could ever dream of offers him a solution to all his problems. He happily accepts what he assumes is a devil’s bargain to get out of his problems. He marries her and joins her high society in Boulder. It seems great, and finally he’s going to get out of the crushing poverty and daily 15-hour shifts at the sparks and smoke factory in Eldorado Springs. But he starts to grow discontent with his life when he finds out he’s going to die. He has no idea what to do since April has clearly been lying to him. But one decision after another, starting with making himself into a robot, leads him to find out that what he thought was provolone is actually Swiss cheese, and it’s got lots of holes.
