About this listen

'I absolutely loved it. Anyone interested in the relationship between tech, our bodies and our minds should bump it to the top of their queue immediately' - Zadie Smith, author of The Fraud

'This bold and highly impressive debut novel has its thumb right over the sore spots of modern life' - Guardian

Mary is single, jobless, and on her way to Ibiza.

There, at a party, she meets Tom, a brilliant chemist on the verge of launching a new drug that claims to cure the anxieties of modern life.

Back in London after a heady trip, Mary begins going out with Tom and working for her sort-of-ex Lara, who has created innovative dating app designed to revolutionize the industry. As tech and pharma collide, she is forced to question what love and success mean in a world that is hurtling out of control.

'Audacious, hot, deeply uncomfortable and genuinely thrilling' - Saba Sams, author of Send Nudes

Profile Image for Eva G.

Badly written

The book was dealing with some interesting ideas but the writing style was not engaging at all. Characters were thin and unlikable, there was a lot of unnecessary plot and the dialogue was very clunky. An exasperating listen.
