Coup de coeur
(Literature), by Sorcha
This complex and current novel explores some of the big concerns of our time: irreversible climate change, multi-billionaires seemingly unlimited power and resources, A.I. technologies and the evils of Internet culture. Told from the points of view of two fundamentally different women - Martha Einkorn, personal assistant of a billionaire tech CEO, and Lai Zhen, survivalist Youtuber -, The Future is a suspenseful roller-coaster from the first page to the last.
The new novel from the Women’s Prize-winning, bestselling author of The Power, The Future is a white-knuckle tour de force and dazzling exploration of the world we have made and where we are going.The Future – as the richest people on the planet have discovered – is where the money is.The Future is a few billionaires leading the world to destruction while safeguarding their own survival with secret lavish bunkers.The Future is private weather, technological prophecy and highly deniable weapons.The Future is a handful of friends—the daughter of a cult leader, a non-binary hacker, an ousted Silicon Valley visionary, the concerned wife of a dangerous CEO, and an internet-famous survivalist—hatching a daring plan. It could be the greatest heist ever. Or the cataclysmic end of civilization.The Future is what you see if you don’t look behind you.The Future is the only reason to do anything, the only object of desire.The Future is here.
