A haunting exploration of motherhood, grief, jealousy, and the commodification of art in a near-future society ruled by class division and rising AI. The characters are jagged and intentionally unlikeable, which only adds to the book’s tension and power.
Ling Ling Huang masterfully blends dystopia and emotional depth in a way that lingers long after the final page.
