Description

From the best-selling author of The Power comes a lightning-fast thriller confronting the technology that rules our lives, the few at the top who control it, and our future if we don’t fight back.

Winner of the Women’s Prize for Fiction and co-creator of the award-winning game Zombies, Run!, Naomi Alderman explores the shadowy world of mega-rich tech companies in her new novel, The Future. This heart- pounding tale of power and corruption raises real questions about humanity’s trajectory and the systems that keep us captive.

Naomi Alderman, mentored by Margaret Atwood and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, has had her work translated into over thirty-five languages. The Power was recently adapted into a series for Amazon Prime.
