A brand-new, razor-sharp translation from the original German Expressionist novel. Metropolis 2026 strips away the dust of the past to reveal a gripping symbolist parable for the Age of AI. This is not a rehashed antique, more of a warning for our post-truth reality. The "False Maria" is the original deepfake influencer; Elites rule from the cloud; and the gig workers toil in the depths. This Time Warp Editions release features original illustrations, extensive historical annotations, a contextual introduction, and 12 full-color plates of vintage 1927 film posters. The year is 2026. The algorithm is listening.
