Book Review: Stronger, Faster, and More Beautiful - Arwen Elys Dayton
Wow! What a stunning book. It's a series of short stories - all taking place in a world where gene-editing isn't just legal; it's a sacrament.
Each chapter jumps us further into the future. What starts off as an uncertain way to improve the human species gradually becomes more beautiful and more terrifying.
Do you lose your virginity if you do it with a reconstructed girl? What life is there for a baby with a genetically enhanced brain? Which of your principles will you sacrifice for the greater good? Is it ethical to experiment on yourself?
It's smart and shocking sci-fi, which asks uncompromising questions and vividly paints a picture of the world we might shortly inhabit.
