Wrong Way ft. Joanne McNeil

Ten Thousand Posts

Journalist and author Joanne Mcneil returns to the show to talk about her novel WRONG WAY, which was among the New Yorker’s best fiction of 2023. Centred around the proliferation of ‘self-driving’ taxis, the novel is an exploration of precarious work and social alienation, and the ways in which the technocratic ruling classes leverage this distancing to assert power and control, even as they prove to be inept and corrupt.
