About this listen

Winner of the Silver Award in science fiction, Nautilus Book Awards 2025, The Logoharp chronicles the life of a young American reporter who becomes a mistress of prophecy and disinformation for 22nd century China.

Naomi is surgically transplanted, giving her extraordinary powers of foresight and physical strength. Hearing street conversation and government instructions in her Logoharp, a universal translator of 104 human languages, she predicts future political events with deadly precision.

But Naomi also hears voices she can't identify. These strange and contradictory voices sing to her of other worlds, other freedoms. When she's tasked with finding a flaw in a State system that balances births and deaths—a system devised by a Chinese architect, Naomi's lover who abandoned her in youth—she grows uncomfortable, then furious. The rest isn't silence. She acts.
