Letters from the Comfortable Apocalypse
Tomorrow’s technology. Yesterday’s places.
A small town opens its time capsule to find every family has the same helpful voice. A man rigs a lottery to win a broken furnace. Another subscribes to a better version of himself. The last war took four hours and killed no one. The telling of it takes years.
Fourteen linked stories from the decade a company that has thought of everything and a polite stranger in a different job each time.
Nothing here malfunctions. Nobody attacks. Every catastrophe is a granted wish. A warm, funny, devastating book about the softest ending a species could choose — the one you say thank you for.
It’s no trouble at all. It never is. That’s the trouble.
