More Perfect - The Circle meets Inception in this moving exploration of tech and connection.

"What does it feel like to wake up in the Panopticon? It’s like waking up for the first time ever. It’s like waking up with a third eye." When Moremi connects her brain to the Panopticon, a network which allows you to see inside the minds and dreams of others, she believes that the technology will save her from depression, loneliness and, eventually, death. That is until she meets Orpheus.  Orpheus was brought up in isolation by a Neo-luddite father. He was raised to question everything, including the government who plan to make the connection procedure compulsory.  They promise that connecting everyone to the Panopticon will end human suffering and usher in a more perfect world. But when Orpheus and Moremi uncover the dark side of the technology, they find themselves on opposite sides of a radical divide, between those who believe that the Panopticon will save humanity, and those who will stop at nothing to destroy it. Deftly weaving through strands of Greek mythology, Temi Oh poses timely questions about technology, identity and the cost of progress. This novel will be perfect for fans of Inception, and books by Dave Eggars and Madeline Miller.  Praise for Temi Oh  'A major new voice.  Read Temi Oh today.
