From New York Times bestselling author Cory Doctorow, Radicalized is four urgent SF novellas of America's present and future within one book
Told through one of the most on-pulse genre voices of our generation, Radicalized is a timely collection consisting of four SF novellas connected by social, technological, and economic visions of today and what America could be in the near, near future.
Unauthorized Bread is a tale of immigration, the toxicity of economic and technological stratification, and the young and downtrodden fighting against all odds to survive and prosper.
In Model Minority, a Superman-like figure attempts to rectifiy the corruption of the police forces he long erroneously thought protected the defenseless...only to find his efforts adversely affecting their victims.
Radicalized is a story of a darkweb-enforced violent uprising against insurance companies told from the perspective of a man desperate to secure funding for an experimental drug that could cure his wife's terminal cancer.
The fourth story, Masque of the Red Death, harkens back to Doctorow's Walkaway, taking on issues of survivalism versus community.
Austin slacker dreaming of a world where humans don’t completely and totally f-up the entire environment. He/him
They approved my femur surgery, and they approved PT and OT in-house because I couldn't walk very far or up stairs but then tell me get my follow-up care approved I would have to go in person to see my PCP Unrelated, the "Radicalized" short story by Cory Doctorow is great

@jonfavs on the last mailbag episode of @PodSaveAmerica you mentioned you wanted to read some non-political books in 2020. Might I suggest "Radicalized" or "Walkaway" by @doctorow or if you just want a fun read, "Old Man's War" by @scalzi

Enjoyed reading this article on how Cory Doctorow @doctorow trained himself to write anywhere, from airport floors to his garage. I'm checking out his book, Radicalized, which he also mentions in this article. #writingtip https://t.co/1AsTWLaMZU
