Beskrivning
Imagine a world where your influence on social media determines your job, your home and your friends. A world without politicians, where the corporations run the country. | Set in a dystopian London, 'Fluence' is a story of aspiration and desperation and of power seen and unseen. Amber is young and ambitious. Martin is burnt out by years of struggling. She cheats to get what she wants while he barely clings on to what he has. | It's the week before the annual Pay Day when strata positions are decided by the algorithms. The social media feed is frenetic with people trying to boost their influence rating, while those above the strata and those who've opted out pursue their own manipulative goals. | To what extremes, and at what cost to their families, will Amber and Martin go to achieve the Fluence they desire?

Mer information

Stephen Oram writes science fiction and is lead curator for near-future fiction at Virtual Futures. He's been a hippie-punk, religious-squatter and an anarchist-bureaucrat; he thrives on contradictions. He is published in several anthologies and has two published novels, 'Quantum Confessions' and 'Fluence'. His collection of sci-fi shorts, 'Eating Robots and Other Stories', was described by the 'Morning Star' as one of the top radical works of fiction in 2017.

Recensioner i media

"Extraordinarily gifted, detailed and believable. The author has created a vivid and frightening vision and the believable world just around the corner is an outstanding feature of this novel. The world of 'Fluence' may soon be upon us and we must act to stop a pulsating piece of fiction becoming our terrible reality." - Paul Simon, 'The Morning Star'
