Erasures

by Omar Imady

Overview

The year is 2049.

Following a devastating war, Earth teeters on the brink of destruction. The World Congress is convened to identify the enemy: unpredictability.

Buried deep in Zone 4's Literature Hub, Ray Blankenship is tasked with digitizing humanity's surviving books. In this new world, meticulously monitored and managed, Ray is restless. In the absence of chance, of mystery and miracles, meaning is missing.

But when digital texts suddenly start disappearing, the entire principle of predictability is plunged into uncertainty. Soon, whole books begin to vanish. Not just any books. Sacred texts.

As the race to preserve these writings quickens, the enigma grows.

How far, how deep will these erasures go?

A dystopian mystery from award-winning author Omar Imady.

About the Author

Omar Imady is an uncommon collection of many things - poet, historian, novelist, Syrian, American, exile, Sufi, 'Alan Wattsian', cat lover, avid coffee drinker, insatiable gastronome - all of which find expression in his growing repertoire of eclectic fiction. He is the author of multiple books, including The Gospel of Damascus, a 2012 Book of the Year Award finalist, and When Her Hand Moves, a collection of three controversial, thought-provoking novellas and The Celeste Experiment and Catfishing Caitlyn, both 2023 Literary Titan Book Award winners. His forthcoming novels dig ever deeper into the human experience of alienation and the quest for meaning in a world increasingly hostile to answers.
