Clyde DeSouza’s new book Memories with Maya pushes the boundaries of science fiction.

So novel is his theme, reputed publications abroad have shown keen interest in serenading Clyde, showering him with kind words and yes, they were as impressed by this author’s take on transhumanism as this diarist, who got to know the writer recently.

There are no aliens, spaceships or flying supermen used as hooks to get readers’ attention. Instead, the tale revolves around how emerging
technology such as augmented reality and artificial intelligence will
affect us.

Sounds perfect for Hollywood, doesn’t it? However, we feel there is more truth in his story, than just what another average science fiction tale would reveal.
