Why read it?
1 author picked Show Us Who You Are as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a speculative novel, asking readers: how might we use technology to replicate loved ones before they pass, so in a way, no one ever has to die? How would we want to remember them? How do we process and avoid grief through technology? And how might technology with an ableist focus create an erasure of neurodivergence?
