Laurie Penny’s shorter fiction uses speculative settings to examine real-world political questions. Everything Belongs to the Future (2016) is her most prominent novella, imagining a world where lifespan extension has become the ultimate luxury good, available only to those who can pay.

Her other shorter works, including Your Orisons May Be Recorded (2016) and The Hundredth House Had No Walls (2019), continue this approach of using genre fiction to explore themes of power, technology, and social inequality.
