Klappentext zu „I Hate the Internet “
Now in paperback, this novel is a satire of our internet age. In the 1990s, Adeline drew a successful comic book series that made her kind-of famous. In 2013, she aired some unfashionable opinions, and the reaction of the internet was to send her abusive messages. 'This book has soul as well as nerve...'

Pressezitat
"This succinct, surprising, infinitely self-knowing book is the Infinite Jest of the Twitter age all the same. Oh, and it's the Kurt Vonnegut, hell, the Swift and Voltaire of the Twitter age too, why not? He has come up with a satirical novel that, at least while you're immersed in it, makes everyone else's novels look like the blinkered artefacts of the bloated, tech-addled, smilingly exploitative western culture that he so nimbly takes to bits. It's vicious. It's a hoot." Dominic Maxwell The Times
