Had an interesting panel discussion about technology being our greatest friend or worst enemy with French writers Jean-Marc Ligny, Audrey Pleynet, and moderated by Jean Baret. We had a long queue, full house, and a lovely book signing session afterwards.

اكتملت الثلاثية وانتهت رحلتي مع عائلة جنة العبدلله. عشت معهم تفاصيل حياتهم وتناقضاتها، تعرفت على صراعاتهم ومخاوفهم وأحلامهم. استمعت إلى قصصهم على لسان ثلاثة أجيال، الأم والابن والجدة. جنة واستقبالها لحبة الشباب الدائم، أمل الابن وصراعه مع أدلجة الذكاء الاصطناعي، وأمل الجدة وعودتها إلى الحياة.

حياة عائلة جنة العبدالله في عمّان المستقبلية، بعد ١٠٠ عام من اليوم، في مواجهة مع التطور التكنولوجي والذكاء الاصطناعي والشباب الدائم. ثلاثة روايات على لسان الأم والابن والجدة، تعرض علينا لمحة مما قد يخبئه المستقبل لنا.

سعدني الكشف عن تصميم غلاف رواية فرح على الأرض، الجزء الثالث والأخير من سلسلة الخيال العلمي "الشباب الدائم". نعود في الرواية إلى مدينة عمّان المستقبلية، لنتابع الأحداث التي طرأت على عائلة جنة العبدالله وتعاملهم مع التطورات التكنولوجية المتلاحقة التي أتاحت لهم اللعب في أعمارهم والعودة إلى شبابهم.
