Beskrivelse

"The Memory Librarian" is written by Janelle Monáe, one the most fascinating and multifaceted artists of our time. The cultural icon is not only a well-known actor, a groundbreaking fashionista, and an amazing singer-songwriter, she is also an entrancing storyteller.

"The Memory Librarian" is a collection of short stories set in the Afrofuturistic world Monáe created for her celebrated album "Dirty Computer". Monáe invites you to return to totalitarian world from the album - a world reigned by a soulless regime wherein your very thoughts, individuality and sense of self can be controlled by others. The ones in control of others memories are in control of the future. It is this world Jane 57821 rebelled from by deciding to remember and breaking free.

"The Memory Librarian" by Janelle Monáe is an anthology of sci-fi stories with inspiration from influential speculative fiction writers such as Octavia Butler, Ted Chiang and Nnedi Okorafor that expands on the mythos and lore from Monáe's album. The stories all explore deep themes relevant to the human experience. In a world where people can be A.I., human or other, but everyone is controlled by a dystopian and repressive regime, the anthology collects a a series of tales meditating on identity, liberty, memory, race, technology, and love.
