SHEILA HETI, author of Pure Colour

Paris, 1775: Celine''s husband is mostly absentHer parents are elsewhere. Meanwhile men are inventing stories about her - about her affairs, her sexuality, and addictions...

All these stories are lies, but the public loves them - spreading them like a virus. Celine can only watch as her name becomes a symbol for everything rotten in this society ruled by men high on colonial genocide, natural destruction, and crimes against womenTo survive, Celine and her friends must band together in search of justice, truth and beauty.

Fantastical, funny and blindingly bright, The Future Future follows one woman on an urgently contemporary quest to clear her name and change the world.
