Abridging has always been in vogue. Now, apps like Blinkist take entire books and crunch them down to a series of what are called Blinks—which amount to around 2,000 words. “Is that what books are coming to, a handy social lubricant?” Anthony Lane asks.
Can You Read a Book in a Quarter of an Hour?
Phone apps now offer to boil down entire books into micro-synopses. What they leave out is revealing.

We've got a racist history, racist politicians, racist newspapers owned by racist press barons, racist columnists, and a racist government in thrall to racist tech-bros pumping money into racist hate-mobs.
Of course they hate talking about fucking racism.
