Trying to find a book I read almost 20 years ago
This was a science fiction book that followed multiple stories that all related to the advancement of technology. The chapters would switch perspectives between the stories and from what I remember, the stories did not converge (could be wrong about that though).
Here’s the kicker, I only really remember one story. It followed a boy that was genetically modified to be part monkey/chimpanzee. In this story, he was trying to assimilate into normal life. During a particularly climactic part of the story, he started flinging poo at some bullies.
There were definitely other stories in this book, but that’s the only one I remember. I read this book back in the late 2000s/early 2010s. The only other detail I remember was the cover was white with a silhouette of a person/monkey. Sorry it’s not too much detail, but hoping the scifi/book community can help me remember this 😅
