Ohhhh yes I love her, and didn’t know about this book! Thank you! 500 $degen

It's a great book. The style of writing is dynamic and genre-defying. 

It's thanks to Oram that I came across this incredible piece by Francis Bacon, written in 1626! in his utopian story New Atlantis. :O

Wow, it’s incredible that he wrote that in 1626. I have never read New Atlantis, and so looked it up just now. Have you read a physical version of the book, and if so, is there an edition you’d recommend?
