out of a sprawling California campus, links users’ personal emails, social media, banking, and
purchasing with their universal operating system, resulting in one online identity and a new age of
civility and transparency. As Mae tours the open-plan office spaces, the towering glass dining
facilities, the cozy dorms for those who spend nights at work, she is thrilled with the company’s
modernity and activity. There are parties that last through the night, there are famous musicians
playing on the lawn, there are athletic activities and clubs and brunches, and even an aquarium of
rare fish retrieved from the Marianas Trench by the CEO. Mae can’t believe her luck, her great
fortune to work for the most influential company in America--even as life beyond the campus grows
distant, even as a strange encounter with a colleague leaves her shaken, even as her role at the
Circle becomes increasingly public. What begins as the captivating story of one woman’s ambition
