Description
A razor-sharp and darkly funny novel about a marriage on the brink of collapse. Michael Mixner's life savings have vanished in the wake of a personal tragedy, while his wife Wendy is drawn into a mysterious data-mining project with far-reaching ambitions. As their lives become increasingly entwined with those of the powerful and the corrupt, Michael and Wendy find themselves at the centre of a deadly chain of events that will change them forever. Set against the backdrop of an economic dystopia, Sensation Machines is a gripping novel that explores themes of greed, automation, universal basic income, and the broken justice system. With its brilliant observations and big ideas, this novel implicates us all - each one of us playing our part in the vast systems that define and control our lives.
