Touch by Courtney Maum is a timely and modern novel addressing life in our high tech, digital era where we often touch our iphones more than we touch each other. Sloane is a trend forecaster and anti-breeder. When hired by a huge tech company, she begins to sense that old-fashioned values and physical intimacy might be making a come back, along with the flip phones and postage stamps.
I found this book at turns hilarious and terrifying, thinking of the implications of where we might be going and what is being lost. An intelligent and witty book, well worth reading.
