Joe Goldberg is done with the cities. He’s done with the muck and the posers, done with Love. Now he’s saying hello to nature, to simple pleasures on a cozy island in the Pacific Northwest.

Nicolás ha decidido que ya está bien de que lo que mole sea ser el primero en algo. ¿Por qué no mola ser el séptimo, por ejemplo? ¿Por qué es tan malo eso de ser «del montón»?

Y como Nico es un tipo activo, decide hablar con varios amigos que también son «del montón», para, entre todos, hacer... algo, no saben qué. Un montón.

The Future is a handful of friends—the daughter of a cult leader, a non-binary hacker, an ousted Silicon Valley visionary, the concerned wife of a dangerous CEO, and an internet-famous survivalist—hatching a daring plan. It could be the greatest heist ever. Or the cataclysmic end of civilization.

Martha may have left the cult, but if the apocalyptic warnings in her father’s fox and rabbit sermon—once a parable to her—are starting to come true, how much future is actually left?

Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place. True, she still has gig jobs instead of a career, and the apartment where she’s lived since college still looks like she’s just moved in.
