‘Had it not been for her, our species would have self-destructed. Our legacy: a thin layer of plastic, concrete and chicken bones in the earth’s crust.’



What would a human from the distant future say if they suddenly found themselves in the present? What would they reveal about the future of our world and species?
Brave New World meets Black Mirror, this disturbingly plausible look into the future of humankind is as gripping as it is increasingly urgent.
