With a technologist's understanding of how Silicon Valley works, a futurist's vision of what's coming next, and a novelist's sense of irony and suspense, Hodjat dramatizes, in this sharp-edged novella, a bleeding-edge breakthrough in storytelling...
-BookLife Reviews
Imagine an app that creates a story based on a user's daily activities and interactions...The app is complete with genres and characters to choose from. The Narrator is that app. There's just one problem: the company behind the product isn't seeing the popularity and use they were hoping for. When they give the green light to product manager Matt to add features that make it stickier, Matt couldn't be more excited.
He teams up with Lida, a gifted analyst, and the pair get drawn into the project-and each other. Then Lida notices an anomalous trend among certain users of the Narrator app and urges Matt to help get to the bottom of this.
When Rob, a programmer who's pulled into the project by Matt, is interrogated by the FBI, it's clear that there are darker implications for everyone involved. And when Matt suddenly breaks up with Lida, despite their promising relationship, Lida suspects that there is much more to the anomalous user behavior than anyone could have imagined.
Fraught with suspense, The Narrator is a foreboding of the power of technology, and asks the urgent question: In the end, how much control do we really have on our decisions and ideas?
