Description
The Employees, a chilling and exhilarating novel, explores the human condition through the lens of an interstellar spaceship. The crew's daily tasks are chronicled in a series of staff reports and memos, but things take a strange turn when the ship takes on mysterious objects from a distant planet. As tensions rise and the crew becomes increasingly attached to these objects, the very fabric of their existence is threatened.
Olga Ravn's prose is a masterful blend of foreboding and dark humour, delivering a scathing critique of a society governed by productivity. This thought-provoking novel probes the very essence of what makes us human, raising important questions about the nature of existence and our place in the universe.
