Dr Atlas Brown was supposed to save humanity from itself. When he discovered the airborne particle that spread hate like a virus, his plan was to extract it from the atmosphere and reap the rewards. He dreamed of professional recognition and fame – book deals, TV interviews, and medals for the scientist responsible for a new age of peace and tranquillity. But Atlas and his plans have never seen eye to eye. Now he is hiding out, living like a hermit next to a gasholder that holds all the hate in the world, growing increasingly hungry and delusional, wondering how he got it so very wrong.
“unsettlingly brilliant”
“Black Mirror meets Kafka”
“uncomfortably prescient”
Haunting and darkly funny, this speculative literary novel explores arrogance, capitalism, and the irony of a man undone by his own solution. If you enjoyed Oryx and Crake, Cat’s Cradle or The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida, you’ll love The Hate Extractor.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. All the hate in the world, trapped right here in England.Hungry, delusional, and living like a hermit next to a gasholder that contains all humanity's hate, Atlas Brown asks his reflection, imaginary academics, and a parliament of owls the only questions that matter anymore: will he go down in history as the scientist who sacrificed everything to save the world-or as the coward who broke it? And where the hell are his running shoes?The Hate Extractor tells the story of the man who discovered and trapped an airborne particle that spreads hate like a virus. However, the utopian future he hoped for has not transpired. Instead, the world has slipped into a quiet, stagnant dystopia. Freedom from war and violence has come at a devastating cost, and Atlas Brown finds himself ensnared in absurd isolation, his self-proclaimed brilliance curdling into regret.Haunting and darkly funny, this novel is a meditation on arrogance, capitalism, and the bitter comedy of a man undone by his own solution. If you enjoyed Oryx and Crake, Cat's Cradle, or Station Eleven, then you'll love The Hate Extractor. Left to guard a gasholder containing all humanity's hate, Atlas Brown ponders the only question that matters anymore: will he be remembered as the man who saved the world or the coward who broke it?
