Newlyweds Asha and Cyrus build an app that replaces religious rituals and soon find themselves running one of the most popular social media platforms in the world. Meet Asha Ray, a brilliant coder, and possessor of a Pi tattoo, poised to revolutionize artificial intelligence. Asha is reunited with her high school crush, Cyrus Jones, who inspires her to write a new algorithm. They exchange vows, abandon her PhD program, and work at an exclusive tech incubator called Utopia. The platform becomes a sensation, with millions of users seeking personalized rituals daily. Will Cyrus and Asha’s marriage survive the pressures of sudden fame, or will she be overshadowed by the man everyone calls the new messiah? Award-winning author Tahmima Anam takes on faith and the future with a gimlet eye and a deft touch in this gripping novel. Come for the radical vision of human connection, stay for the wickedly funny feminist look at startup culture and modern partnership. Can technology, with all its limits and possibilities, disrupt love?
