Publisher's description. Fast, thrilling and compulsively addictive, The Circle is Dave Eggers' bestselling novel about our obsession with the internet and where it may lead. When Mae Holland lands her dream job at the world's most powerful internet company, she has no idea what awaits behind the doors of The Circle...

A stunning work of terrifying plausability ... a worthy and entertaining read

Eggers has set his style and pace to technothriller: the writing is brisk, spare and efficient ... it works

Prescient, important and enjoyable ... a deft modern synthesis of Swiftian wit with Orwellian prognostication'

The Circle is 'Brave New World' for our brave new world ... fast, witty and troubling

An elegantly told, compulsively readable parable for the 21st Century

Eggers's writing is so fluent, his ventriloquism of tech-world dialect so light, his denouement so enjoyably inevitable

Tremendous novel ... inventive, big hearted and very funny. Prepare to be addicted

Mae can't believe her great fortune to work for them -  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 ...
