À propos de cet audio

“It’s like there are a million little threads attached to everything—everything you think and choose and encounter—and all the threads are destined to get tangled up eventually.”

Kennedy Weatherly is a lonely, anxious young man working in finance. After implanting a brain-machine interface—a device controlled and interacted with through brain signals—he inexplicably begins experiencing problems with it. Unable to locate or identify the source on his own, Kennedy soon finds himself in a maze of absurd customer support processes as his problem only seems to get worse. He must struggle to regain control over his life in the progressively surreal and disorienting landscape of the near future.

A deeply dark yet almost comical exploration of humanity’s increasing alienation from itself, Millions of Little Threads will make you ponder the nature of progress, of technology, and of what it means to find oneself caught in the whirlpool of existence.

This book is a clever critique of the pervasive use of technology, and in the quick 1 hour it digs quite deep into the nuances of how this fantastic new technology that everyone is now adopting and using for everything in their lives is actually debilitating to normal life should you stop using it. One thing that struck me is that I've never read or listened to a book that utilises liminal spaces. Not sure if it was intentional or not, but it was noteworthy to me.

Aside from all that, it was short and any criticism that I did have are negated by it being concise. I thoroughly enjoy Pantano's stories and narration, and I can't wait for what he has next.

First book featuring liminal spaces?
