Spotřebič – Morgan J. O. (2024)

Appliance. Prototype. The first step on the path to a bright future. In the future, everything will be easy and abundance will await everyone. A future governed by data under all circumstances, never by emotions. You can be a part of it. Any distance can be overcome in an instant. Nothing will stand in the way of human contact, traveling across the planet, trade, and the exchange of goods. All it takes is a simple device, a transmission unit, that will be in every city, on every street, in every household. Fast. Clean. Convenient. A new technology that will soon completely change the world. A miracle of science and technology that will impact the daily lives of humanity. What will happen to people in a world captivated by progress? To what makes us human? To memories, fear, love, opposites, mortality? What can we lose when we strive for perfection? The appliance is much more than just a story. In his perfectly crafted novel, the acclaimed poet J. O. Morgan analyzes our faith in technology, our hunger for new things, and the rapid changes that affect our lives. He urges us to stop and reflect on the future we want, on the systems we believe in, and on what is truly important.
