From The Times Perhaps the worst review I ever gave to a book was my verdict on Oliver Letwin’s Apocalypse How?: Technology and the Threat of Disaster at the start of 2020. I still feel bad about this but it wasn’t my fault. It was his fault, because it’s bad. Billed as a warning about the danger of network collapse – the internet going down, and so on – about half of it took the form of a novel, set in 2037. Oh yes.
