Not only the winner of the Women’s Prize for Fiction, but also a co-creator and lead writer for the award-winning smartphone game Zombies, Run!, Naomi Alderman knows a thing or two about the tech industry. In her new novel, The Future, she delves into the shadowy underworld of the mega-rich companies that dominate our daily lives and delivers a heart-pounding tale of power and corruption.
Although The Future is fiction, Alderman raises very real questions about the trajectory of the human race and what kind of future is in store for us if we fail to change the systems of power that keep us willing captives.
