Invisible Things

A sharply written satire of current socio-political and class conflict, but set in space. But let's be clear, SF is the clothing this book wears, but that element is not what it's all about.
Everything is recognizable and funny but not funny in the way it reflects so many current issues, similar to the way the film "Don't Look Up" frames the ridiculous politicization of climate change.
I really enjoyed reading this. It's such an intelligently written book, the way well-conceived satire should be: slightly over the top in how it portrays the world (but is it, really?), but not so much that critics can shrug and dismiss it as "pure fiction."
