"A warm-hearted tale of a woman reconfiguring her priorities."--O Magazine NPR, "Best Books of 2017" Belletrist's Book Pick for June The New York Times Book Review, Editors' Choice Glamour, "The 6 Juiciest Summer Reads" New York Post, "The 29 Best Books of the Summer" The Huffington Post, "24 Incredible Books You Should Read This Summer" BuzzFeed, "22 Exciting Books You Need to Read This Summer" Refinery29, "The Best Reads of May Are Right Here" Electric Literature, "25 Best Novels of 2017" The Millions, "A Year in Reading" A heartfelt, hilarious tale of a famous trend forecaster who suddenly finds herself at odds with her own predictions... Estranged from her family, best friends with her driverless car, partnered with a Frenchman who belives in post-sexual sex, international trend forecaster Sloane Jacobsen is the perfect candidate to lead tech giant Mammoth's conference for affluent consumers who prefer virtual relationships to the real thing. But early in her contract, Sloane starts picking up on cues that physical intimacy is going to make a major comeback, leaving many--Sloane included--to question if her maturing intuitions are as dependable as they once were. And if Sloane goes rogue against her all-powerful employer, will she be able to let in the love and connectedness she's long been denying herself? A poignant but amusing call to arms that showcases Courtney Maum's signature humor, Touch is a moving investigation into what it means to be an individual in a globalized world.
