Here's the cover for Naomi Alderman's next novel, "The Future"

The cover of Naomi Alderman's next novel made its public debut yesterday.

The Future, like its title suggests and like Alderman's previous novel The Power, takes place in a futuristic society ... but one that can be easily recognized in current times.

It features technology billionaires molding the world to their benefit, consequences for others be damned (hm) — with private weather and secret, lavish survival bunkers — and a motley crew of friends who try to fight back.

The Future comes out November 7; you can read about the cover design process at great length in Literary Hub (or simply admire a large high-res image of the book).
