Humor comes together in a sometimes-dark, often playful, and ultimately humanist satire of technology, media, and politics past and present in this fascinating debut novel by Schneider, a journalist and political commentator.

Throughout, the text delivers plenty of laughs, portraying historical events without the perspective of hindsight and understanding...the reader comes away with the sense that this is not a bald-faced indictment of technology, but a nuanced treatment on the ways in which we abuse it.

A smart, layered satire for historians and cultural critics alike.
