PERFECTION

Latronico's novel is more social commentary than a work of fiction. Narrator Sophie Roberts describes the vacuous existence of a millennial couple who spend most of their lives online as graphic designers for websites. The narration is crisp, and the tone, pitch, and pacing are adapted to the documentary style of this exposé on the habits, interests, and values of an international community of technocrats. This short audiobook features an omniscient narrator, no dialogue, and endless depictions of the couple's lifestyle. What listeners hear is a scathing critique of the empty lives of people who value image over substance and appearance over relevance. While listeners may disparage the couple's life choices, they may also see aspects of their own lives reflected. [Published: JANUARY 2026]
