A computer-generated plague sweeps the world, killing every black person in sight. This is one of a number of doomsday events contained in this futuristic novel where mayhem follows mayhem. In another, a shark is creating havoc in New York's sewer system.

Sewer, Gas and Electric: The Public Works Trilogy | Matt Ruff

pick

I loved Matt Ruff‘s Fool on the Hill and still do, and decided to reread this trilogy (which is this 1 book.) We got Joan dealing with alligators in the sewers, her ex who is building the tallest skyscraper as well as “Electric Negro” androids which makes for intensely uncomfortable satire, a black captain of a submarine, an AI Ann Rand; an ambitious and only partially successful funny yet pointed social commentary. Also the talking VW.
