Description

The author of Silicon Valley satire I Hate the Internet on the evils of social media, and how novelists have failed to tackle it.

What if you were a woman in a society that hated women? Set in the San Francisco of 2013, I Hate the Internet offers a hilarious and obscene portrayal of life amongst the victims of the digital boom.

In New York in the middle of the twentieth century, comic book companies figured out how to make millions from comics without paying their creators anything.

I Hate the Internet is a novel by Jarett Kobek published in 2016. The novel follows Adeline, a semi-famous, middle-aged comic book artist, and other San Francisco residents as they attempt to navigate a world increasingly liberated by the freedoms of speech provided through Twitter. After a video of Adeline voicing controversial opinions is posted on the Internet, she spends much of the novel attempting to remedy her negative online reputation.

Chief Superintendent Frederick Troy of Scotland Yard, newly promoted after good service during Nikita Khrushchev's visit to Britain, is not looking forward to a Continental trip with his older brother, Rod. Rod was too vain to celebrate being fifty so instead takes his entire family on 'the Grand Tour' for his fifty-first birthday: Paris, Sienna, Florence, Vienna, Amsterdam. Restaurants, galleries and concert halls. But Frederick Troy never gets to Amsterdam

This became a widespread assumption among readers of contemporary fiction - although Jarett Kobek appears to demur on that received opinion much as he demurs on so many others. There are a few references to Wallace in this Turkish-American author’s first full-length novel, one of which is a fictitious iPhone app called Jesty that would read out the text of Infinite Jest.
