Dave Eggers. Circle
Когда Мэй Холланд нанимают на работу в Circle, самую влиятельную интернет-компанию в мире, она чувствует, что ей предоставлена уникальная возможность. The Circle, располагающаяся на территории обширного кампуса в Калифорнии, связывает личные электронные письма пользователей, социальные сети, банковские операции и покупки с их универсальной операционной системой, что приводит к единой онлайн-идентичности и новой эпохе вежливости и прозрачности.Осматривая офисные помещения открытой планировки, высокие стеклянные столовые, уютные общежития для тех, кто проводит ночи на работе, Мэй восхищается современностью и деятельностью компании. Есть вечеринки, которые длятся всю ночь, есть известные музыканты, играющие на лужайке, есть спортивные мероприятия, клубы и бранчи, и даже есть аквариум с редкими рыбами, извлеченными из Марианской впадины генеральным директором.Мэй не может поверить в свою удачу, в свою огромную удачу работать в самой влиятельной компании в мире – даже несмотря на то, что жизнь за пределами кампуса становится все более отдаленной, даже когда странная встреча с коллегой повергает ее в шок, даже несмотря на то, что ее роль в Круге становится все более публичным.То, что начинается как захватывающая история об амбициях и идеализме одной женщины, вскоре превращается в душераздирающий роман, вызывающий тревогу, поднимающий вопросы о памяти, истории, частной жизни, демократии и пределах человеческого знания.When Mae Holland is hired to work for the Circle, the world’s most powerful internet company, she feels she’s been given the opportunity of a lifetime. The Circle, run out of a sprawling California campus, links users’ personal emails, social media, banking, and purchasing with their universal operating system, resulting in one online identity and a new age of civility and transparency.As Mae tours the open-plan office spaces, the towering glass dining facilities, the cozy dorms for those who spend nights at work, she is thrilled with the company’s modernity and activity. There are parties that last through the night, there are famous musicians playing on the lawn, there are athletic activities and clubs and brunches, and even an aquarium of rare fish retrieved from the Marianas Trench by the CEO.Mae can’t believe her luck, her great fortune to work for the most influential company in the world—even as life beyond the campus grows distant, even as a strange encounter with a colleague leaves her shaken, even as her role at the Circle becomes increasingly public.What begins as the captivating story of one woman’s ambition and idealism soon becomes a heart-racing novel of suspense, raising questions about memory, history, privacy, democracy, and the limits of human knowledge.

Coetzee and Graham Greene, this timeless novel questions whether we can ever understand another nation's war, and what role we have in forging anyone's peace.

Eggers Dave The Every
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.
