27/11/23: Writing this about a month after I finished the book. I almost thought the stories were real, until the stories increasingly spiraled out of hand. Stories are based on real stories of scientific discoveries, how seemingly distinct inventions link from one to another, from a Prussian blue dye to weapon to quantum physics. Short book, but thoroughly enjoyed the somewhat dystopian twist throughout the stories. Look forward to reading this again.
