'Meatspace is the greatest book on loneliness since The Catcher in the Rye' - GARY SHTEYNGART, author of Super Sad True Love Story 'Meatspace is funny. Damn funny. You should really switch off your computer and read it.' MATT HAIG, author of The Humans 'Meatspace is, simply, one of the finest novels I have ever read about modern life and modern living. Douglas Coupland, Junot Diaz, Chuck Palahniuk and Jennifer Egan: stick them in a blender, and out comes this amazing new novel by one of the UK's most distinct voices.' JAMES SMYTHE, author of The Explorer 'Shukla writes with precision, humour and honesty, about the isolation that social media can bring. Meatspace is a novel with many laugh-out-loud moments, break-dancing to the arrhythmia of its existential heart.' NIKITA LALWANI, author of Gifted 'If the purpose of a novel is to make sense of how we live now, Nikesh Shukla's Meatspace fulfills that promise #ennuiisananalogueconstruct' - NIVEN GOVINDEN, author of Black Bread White Beer
