The stories feel so timely and sharp — I wonder if they were inspired by specific events or trends, or if they evolved more organically during writing.

The stories seem to suggest a certain cynicism about media and fame. Did that make others think differently about their own media consumption habits?

The variety in tone and focus is striking, and I’m curious whether the author wanted to explore multiple facets of modern life or if it was a stylistic choice.
