The Circle is the exhilarating new novel from Dave Eggers, best-selling author of A Hologram for the King, a finalist for the National Book Award.
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.

戴夫·埃格斯(Dave Eggers)的新小说是反映当今时代的一则寓言？对硅谷及其侵犯隐私的科技公司的一记透彻羞辱？ 还是说他失诸正鹄，炮制出一部假模假样的乏味小说，既无法为书中角色注入人性，也未能把握其主题？ 埃格斯备受期待的小说《圆圈》(The Circle)本周二开始发售，书评...

評分读故事的过程确实会引发思考。从故事一开始就隐隐觉得不对劲儿——我大概也是属于对完全的透明与公开的网络人生不能接受的人吧——越往下看越有一种holy shit的感觉，心想这怎么可能，大家都疯了吗？直到有一天忽然意识到最近自己也是在网上看vlog看得不亦乐乎的呀。于是就一直...

用戶評價
作者試圖用暮光之城的水平寫1984……
评分美國apolcalypstic末世小說類，有點1984的感覺，說瞭網絡大數據走嚮極端的一種情況。主題貼近現實，可以讓讀者思考網絡、隱私、自由，權利等問題。隻是末世小說總讓人感覺沒有新意。時不時作者還透露一下自己的政治傾嚮，幾處談到中國其實都不怎麼友好。
评分Mae is a bitch.
评分近期比較不錯的反烏托邦作品。故事結構其實和1984以及其他的反烏托邦很像 但是加入瞭現代互聯網和信息分享 所以顯得很真實。結局是和1984一樣的 但是顯得淺薄瞭 如果能再深入一點就好瞭 比如Annie這個角色就不是很深入
评分Nice thought experiment. Like how it puts it as the "social construction and deconstruction of privacy." So much we take for granted now, as neutral, as natural, are heavily socially constructed.
