The Immortal King Rao
A Novel
Vauhini Vara
This debut novel explores the life of King Rao, a tech CEO and leader of a corporate-led global government, through the eyes of his daughter Athena. With climate change threatening the planet, Athena believes saving it requires a radical act of communion. She sets out to tell the world about King's life on a South Indian coconut plantation, migration to the U.S., marriage to an ambitious artist, and invention of his most ambitious creation - Athena herself. Written by a former Wall Street Journal tech reporter, this book blurs the line between literary and speculative fiction, historical and dystopian, exploring the age of technological capitalism and where our actions may lead.
