Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut
2.0
What happens when most jobs are replaced by automation? Player Piano warns us of a different kind of dystopia -- one where everyone has food, and homes and material possessions, where technology is advancing in leaps and bounds, but also, where a divide has been created between those who can be replaced by machines and those who thrive. The novel does a great job of raising important questions about increased classism and job instability for displaced workers.
Certainly not my favorite Vonnegut book, but that seems to be the theme.
