People in that part of the world may only produce Parmesan or Parmigiano Reggiano from specific Italian regions. Nowadays, Italy protects the identity of its cultural food product with an unlikely tool: microchips! Licensed parmesan makers embed microchips into the rinds of their cheese wheels to authenticate them. They are as small as salt grains, but they secure these food products with a blockchain, the computer networks behind cryptocurrencies.

In the British author's latest novel of the uncanny, a concert pianist seeks to escape a humiliating public failure 'I use dreams,' Deborah Levy has said, 'to disturb the reality levels of my book[s]'; real life doubles up, scenes repeat, strange characters make unexpected appearances. Across her work we see such disturbances erupting through dreams, daydreams, or warped and heightened states of consciousness. Her novels maintain a playful relationship with the laws of the physical world: time folds, loops and fragments.
