Description
In this bold and unsettling dystopian novel, Grégoire Courtois brings together elements of The Office, Nineteen Eighty-Four, and Squid Game to create a haunting and thought-provoking tale. In a massive tower, agents spend their days watching endless data feeds from cubicles piled high on top of one another. But when the battle for key territory heats up, defenestration becomes the only way out - a 'ballet of suicides' where the stakes are high and the outcome is far from certain. As the fight for survival intensifies, Courtois raises deep questions about life, community, and work in this unflinching and unpredictable exploration of our contemporary world.
