Book Review of The Light of Other Days

The Light of Other Days
reviewed on + 62 more book reviews


A brilliant, driven industrialist harnesses cutting-edge physics to enable people everywhere, at trivial cost, to see one another at all times. It is the sudden and complete abolition of human privacy, forever. As society reels, the same technology proves able to look backward in time as well. This portrayal of a world when the walls of time and distance have turned to glass will change your view of what it is to be human.
