Don’t get me wrong - it’s brilliantly executed, a disturbingly near-future evisceration of cosmetic culture, toxic relationships and smothering debt. I can admire the craft, but I didn’t enjoy it at all. Claire North writes great prose, peopled with believable characters who I found very easy to despise – in this case (as with 84K) in a near-future setting that cuts awfully close to the bone. Sweet Harmony is a tale of making peace with who you are and making it work for you, but don’t be misled into thinking it’s in any way feel-good or wholesome. Harmony Meads's journey – whilst tragic – is a car crash from opening meltdown to final, character-defining choice. If you’re looking for dark, cynical tales of tomorrow, this could be one for you. If you’re looking for a ray of hope to keep your flickering faith in humanity alive, best steer clear. Full review sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

From the bestselling and award-winning author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August and 84K, a darkly inventive novella about the dangers of pursuing perfection. Harmony is tired. Tired of working so hard, tired of the way she looks, tired of being average. But all that changes when she decides to splash out and upgrade her nanos. And why not? Everyone's doing it now. With a simple in-app purchase, you can update the tech in your bloodstream to transform yourself - get enhanced brain power, the perfect body or a dazzling smile. Suddenly, everything starts going right for her. She's finally becoming the person she always wanted to be. But as Harmony will find out, there's a limit to how many upgrades a body can take . . .

Une œuvre intéressante mais un peu trop ambitieuse. ( )
