4/5

Bello, mi ha sorpreso in positivo. Quattro storie che si mantengono in equilibrio tra circa-fantascienza distopica e realismo, lasciando a chi legge l'idea che manchi in fondo davvero poco per far coincidere la nostra realtà con quelle narrate qui, arrivando almeno in un caso (per ora?) a diventare profetiche. I temi sono tanti: disuguaglianze sociali, controllo dei propri dispositivi, razzismo sistemico e violenza della polizia, sistema sanitario statunintese e radicalizzazione online. L'autore li affronta con equilibrio e a tratti con un approccio intersezionale, senza essere eccessivamente didascalico, rendendo la lettura potenzialmente godibile su più livelli.
