À propos de cet audio

 A powerful dystopian vision of a world where money reigns supreme, from a World Fantasy Award-winning author.

"An extraordinary novel that stands with the best of dystopian fiction, with dashes of The Handmaid's Tale." -- -Cory Doctorow

The penalty for Dani Cumali's murder: $84,000.

Theo works in the Criminal Audit Office. He assesses each crime that crosses his desk and makes sure the correct debt to society is paid in full.

These days, there's no need to go to prison -- provided that you can afford to pay the penalty for the crime you've committed. If you're rich enough, you can get away with murder.

But Dani's murder is different. When Theo finds her lifeless body, and a hired killer standing over her and calmly calling the police to confess, he can't let her death become just an entry on a balance sheet.

Someone is responsible. And Theo is going to find them and make them pay.

Perfect for fans of 1984 and Never Let Me Go, Claire North's moving and unnerving new novel will resonate with readers around the world. Aventure Dystopien Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Psychologiques Science-fiction Suspense Thrillers et romans à suspense Émotionnellement captivant

Ce que les critiques en disent

"An eerily plausible dystopian masterpiece, as harrowing as it is brilliant"—Emily St. John Mandel, bestselling author of Station Eleven
"An extraordinary novel that stands with the best of dystopian fiction, with dashes of The Handmaid's Tale."—Cory Doctorow
"Everybody needs to read 84K. Consistently thoughtful fiction like this needs to be championed. I'll admit it, I'm a little in awe of the author. Her work is sublime.... Claire North deserves your undivided attention. Buy the book, read it. Your brain will thank you.... If there was a rating higher than highly recommended this book would receive it."—The Eloquent Page
"A terrifying setting that feels rooted to the present day.... Imbued with a menace that feels both recognizable and urgent, and the decisions the characters make as a result feel uncomfortably real."—RT Book Reviews
"Another captivating novel from one of the most intriguing and genre-bending novelists currently working in the intersection between thriller and science fiction."—Booklist (starred review)
"A furious, confrontational book that's extremely smart... its energy is infectious and its ideas are fiercely provocative."—SciFiNow
"Put simply, this book just blew my mind. A remarkable writer, doing extraordinary things, and I think this is her best book yet."—Blue Book Balloon
"Claire North goes from strength to strength.... A tense, moving story."—Guardian
"The grimy, meticulously constructed and worrisomely believable dystopia Claire North has created for 84k is our world, just a few years down the path."—NPR
"One of the most distinct and compelling SF novels of the year thus far."—Toronto Star
"A dystopian anthem for the modern activist... a cracking thriller.... Quite simply, North's best book so far."—Starburst
"Evocative, thought-provoking... I'll read anything she writes."—Omnivoracious
"The truly scary thing about 84K is how convincing this dark, brutal class-divided Britain is."—SFX
"Vivid and disturbing."—Publishers Weekly
"A fascinating look at the decisions society is taking now."—The Bookbag
"Claire North's writing is terrific, smart, and entertaining."—Patrick Ness on The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August
"Claire North is a true original, a master of ingenious plotting and feats of imagination."
—Alex Marwood, author of The Wicked Girls, on The Sudden Appearance of Hope
"Wonderful novel...held together by a compelling mystery involving nothing less than the end of the world itself. Beautifully written and structured...a remarkable book."—Booklist (starred review) on The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August

The near future dystopia proposed by this book is chilling in its nearness and believability. The book itself, though, is slow, meandering, and often painfully obvious. Characters will literally say their motivation or their worldview out loud to each other in dialogue. It feels like all the subtlety and craft went into building the world, though even then, sometimes the narration will just tell the reader a fact, rather than letting it be revealed through action. Despite the bluntness, hitting the reader over the head, the book still feels 30% longer than it needs to be. Read it for the ideas.

A grim dystopian vision, but an exhausting grind
