2026 book 76

 Meg Elison’s Foundling Fathers

Elison’s satirical novella is the perfect read for the year 2026. It involves a group of wealthy right-wingers who have cloned four of the founding fathers (Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, and Adams) and raised them in isolation, pretending it’s the 1700s. And then Teen Franklin finds an iPhone in the privy. Very quick and entertaining read. I really liked how it wrapped up, too. A/A-.
