The Every: A novel

The Every: A Dystopian Thriller of Technology and Control

The Merging of Two Giants
From the award-winning author of The Circle comes The Every. An electrifying follow-up that explores the terrifying implications of unchecked technological power. The story begins with a monumental merger between the world’s largest search engine and social media company, the Circle, and the planet’s dominant e-commerce site. Together, they form The Every—the richest, most dangerous, and, surprisingly, the most beloved monopoly ever known. This new entity wields unparalleled influence over global society, raising critical questions about privacy, freedom, and the future of humanity.

Delaney Wells: An Unlikely Heroine
Enter Delaney Wells, an unexpected and reluctant new employee at The Every. A former forest ranger and a staunch tech skeptic, Delaney takes on an entry-level position with a single, covert mission: to dismantle the company from within. She teams up with Wes Makazian, a disillusioned employee with little ambition but a growing awareness of the company’s dangers. Together, they probe for weaknesses, aiming to liberate humanity from the suffocating grip of constant surveillance and the trivialization of life through technology.

Satire, Suspense, and the Fight for Freedom
The Every masterfully blends satire and suspense, creating a narrative that is as absurd as it is terrifying. The book is populated with unforgettable characters, each contributing to the bizarre and dystopian world that Dave Eggers has crafted. Through lacerating set-pieces and dark humor, the novel keeps readers on edge, questioning whether humanity truly desires the freedom that Delaney is fighting to reclaim.
