Fantastic introduction to Kunzru’s work. A good cross section of his narrative style. It has definitely encouraged me to invest in his other works.

Came across this book in a free library somewhere at the back of a shelf. It was interesting enough for such a random and accidental encounter.
Noise is a science fiction-like/dystopian collection of five short stories about technological advancements. I found it really enjoyable mostly because it mixes really well with the Arc of the Scythe series I’m reading right now.
The first story “Bodywork” was really strange and I didn't get the message and the meaning. Didn’t enjoy it. But the other four stories were interesting and thought provoking and overall worth the read. My favourite by far was “Deus Ex Machina”.

Noise is Hari Kunzru's quirky collection of short sories, published in the Penguin 70's series.
Written earlier than his novels, the stories are still humourous ... yet surprisingly dark as they the interface between humanity and machine in an increasingly wired world.

I loved the Memories of the Decadence and Eclipse Chasing. They are original and imaginative stories. I should read more of Kunzru.
