X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Whoever controls our memories controls the
  future.</p>\n<p>Janelle Mon&aacute\;e and an incredible array of talented
  collaborating creators have written a collection of tales comprising the 
 bold vision and powerful themes that have made Mon&aacute\;e such a compel
 ling and celebrated storyteller.</p>\n<p>Dirty Computer introduced a world
  in which thoughts-as a means of self-conception-could be controlled or er
 ased by a select few. And whether human\, A.I.\, or other\, your life and 
 sentience was dictated by those who'd convinced themselves they had the ri
 ght to decide your fate.</p>\n<p>That was until Jane 57821 decided to reme
 mber and break free.</p>\n<p>Expanding from that mythos\, these stories fu
 lly explore what it's like to live in such a totalitarian existence...and 
 what it takes to get out of it. Building off the traditions of speculative
  writers such as Octavia Butler\, Ted Chiang\, Becky Chambers\, and Nnedi 
 Okorafor-and filled with the artistic genius and powerful themes that have
  made Mon&aacute\;e a worldwide icon in the first place-The Memory Librari
 an serves readers tales grounded in the human trials of identity expressio
 n\, technology\, and love\, but also reaching through to the worlds of mem
 ory and time within\, and the stakes and power that exists there</p>\n<p><
