The Machine Book of Weird

 

The Machine Book of Weird is a collection of short stories that explore the consequence of society’s interior turn. A century ago, writers throughout the supposedly civilised world realised their once familiar, domestic world had changed profoundly and began to describe it in singular, unsettling ways. The literature of the lockdown may have already been written.
