    About the book: 2014 / May Holland was very lucky. She works in the ideal company “Sphere” - a union of brilliant minds of a generation, where everyone listens to everyone and everyone is inspired to improve the world. Here May is surrounded by like-minded people, she is loved, her work is appreciated, her superiors are worried about her personal well-being and the health of her family, and they criticize her gently for her mistakes, because they believe in May. “Sphere” is a technological giant, steadily walking along the path of absolute good. The world is beautiful wherever it is touched by the “Sphere”, which creates a new world - a world without crimes and criminality, where your life is an open book; a world without secrets, without envy and evil. Log in, like, make friends - and you will be happy forever. In the world of the Sphere, citizens work together to improve a completely transparent world, in which there are no more dirty secrets left. And there are no secrets left at all. Well, really: if you’re not doing anything wrong, why do you need to hide something?.. Critics dubbed the novel by the leader of the new wave of American literature “the hipster “1984”.” Beginning as a sweet story full of universal love and friendship, the story of a media paradise gradually develops into a disturbing, apocalyptic dystopia, frightening and fascinating in its inevitability.
