Naomi Klein’s new book, Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World, takes a more personal turn, braiding elements of tragi-comic memoir, chilling political reportage, and cultural analysis. She delves into what she calls the Mirror World—our destabilized present rife with doubles and confusion, where far-right movements playact solidarity with the working class, AI-generated content blurs the line between genuine and spurious, and so many of us project our own carefully curated digital doubles into the social media sphere. Moderated by Jarrett Martineau.
