The electrifying follow-up to Dave Eggers'' New York Times Bestseller The Circle
When the world''s largest search engine / social media company merges with the planet''s dominant e-commerce site, it creates the richest and most dangerous-and, oddly enough, most beloved-monopoly ever known: The Every.
Delaney Wells is an unlikely new hire. A former forest ranger and unwavering tech skeptic, she charms her way into an entry-level job with one goal in mind: to take down the company from within. With her compatriot, the not-at-all-ambitious Wes Kavakian, they look for the company''s weaknesses, hoping to free humanity from all-encompassing surveillance and the emoji-driven infantilization of the species. But does anyone want what Delaney is fighting to save? Does humanity truly want to be free?
Studded with unforgettable characters and lacerating set-pieces, The Every blends satire and terror, while keeping the reader in breathless suspense about the fate of the company - and the human animal.
Praise for the The Circle:
''A gripping and highly unsettling read'' Sunday Times
''The Circle is ''Brave New World'' for our brave new world . . . Fast, witty and troubling'' Washington Post
''Immensely readable and very timely'' Metro
''Prescient, important and enjoyable . . . a deft modern synthesis of Swiftian wit with Orwellian prognostication'' Guardian
