ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Circle" by Dave Eggers explores the life of Mae Holland, a young woman who joins a powerful tech company known for its influence on the digital world. The company promotes a utopian ideal of transparency, where every action and interaction is shared publicly. As Mae becomes more immersed in the Circle’s culture, she grapples with the pressure to conform, the erosion of her privacy, and the impact of surveillance on her personal life. The novel examines themes of technology, corporate control, social media, and the consequences of living in an increasingly monitored society.
