Memory Librarian

Book • 2022
In 'The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer', Janelle Monáe and her collaborators delve into a dystopian world where memories are controlled by a technocratic regime.

The book explores themes of queerness, race, gender plurality, and love, weaving them into a narrative of resistance and freedom.

Building on the world introduced in Monáe's album 'Dirty Computer', these stories examine the human trials of identity expression, technology, and love.
