Review: Fear of a Black Planet, an extraordinary glimpse of a near future

I’ve long enjoyed Julian Barnes’s novel, The Sense of an Ending, which highlights the difference between past and future tense. Now it’s on the bestseller list, and if there’s one thing I know, it’s bestsellers.
It’s at best a minor work, a piece of short fiction, actually. As Barnes wrote in an interview, “I’m not one of those people who writes novels for the sake of it.”
I think it’s more likely he’s a lawyer, a novelist. In the last passage I’ve read, Barnes observes,
“A method of literature I think everyone should be familiar with is the short story, which is a classical form, and of course there are no rules about when to write one. A writer can do it in a novel, as I do, but for a short story, it must be one of those points in time when you need to think of doing something different. I’m a very happy adherent of the idea that you should write in the present, but you don’t have to.”
And that
