A spectacular exploration of the power of technology, science fiction at its best, Saara El-Arifi's "More Perfect" is a Sunday Times bestselling novel that delves into the mind-bending world of the Panopticon, a network that allows individuals to see into the minds and dreams of others. When Moremi connects her brain to the Panopticon, she believes it will save her from depression, loneliness, and death. However, when she meets Orpheus, a Neo-luddite raised in isolation by his father, they uncover the dark side of the technology and find themselves on opposite sides of a radical divide. The story explores love, loneliness, and the limits of technology's ability to save a humanity that might not want to be saved. With classical antecedents and a satisfying eye for the future, "More Perfect" is a tightly crafted tale that weaves science fiction, mythology, and more to tell a tale that feels pertinent right now. Kirkus Reviews describes the London encountered in Temi Oh's novel as "grittily familiar," making the near future's dystopia all the more chilling.
