Tell The Machine Goodnight by Katie Williams
Set in a near-future world where happiness is a commodity, the narrative follows Pearl, a technician for a company that uses a machine to prescribe personalized recommendations for a more fulfilling life. As she navigates her own struggles with contentment, Pearl grapples with the complexities of human emotions and relationships, particularly with her son, Rhett, who resists the machine's influence. Through a blend of humor and poignancy, the story explores themes of technology's impact on human connection, the pursuit of happiness, and the intricate dance between control and acceptance.
