    "description": "A wild story of female friendship, language, and power, from France to colonial America to the moon, from 1775 to this very moment: a historical novel like no other.\n\nIt\u2019s the eighteenth century, and Celine is in trouble. Her husband is mostly absent. Her parents are elsewhere. And meanwhile men are inventing stories about her\u2015about her affairs, her sexuality, her orgies and addictions. All these stories are lies, but the public loves them and spreads them like a virus. Celine can only watch as her name becomes a symbol for everything rotten in society.\n\nThis is a world of decadence and saturation, of lavish parties and private salons, of tulle and satin and sex and violence. It\u2019s also one ruled by men\u2015high on colonial genocide, natural destruction, crimes against women, and, above all, language. To survive, Celine and her friends must band together in search of justice, truth, and beauty.\n\nFantastical, funny, and blindingly bright, Adam Thirlwell\u2019s\u00a0The Future Future\u00a0follows one woman on an urgently contemporary quest to clear her name and change the world.",
