Jia Tolentino, author of Trick Mirror: Reflections on SelfDelusionThe prescient, pageturning account of a journey in Silicon Valley: a defining memoir of our digital ageIn her midtwenties, at the height of tech industry idealism, Anna Wienerstuck, broke, and looking for meaning in her work, like any good millennialleft a job in book publishing for the promise of the new digital economy. She moved from New York to San Francisco, where she landed at a bigdata startup in the heart of the Silicon Valley bubble: a world of surreal extravagance, dubious success, and freshfaced entrepreneurs hellbent on domination, glory, and, of course, progress.Anna arrived amidst a massive cultural shift, as the tech industry rapidly transformed into a locus of wealth and power rivaling Wall Street. But amid the company ski vacations and inoffice speakeasies, boyish camaraderie and rideordie corporate fealty, a new Silicon Valley began to emerge: one in far over its head, one that enriched itself at the expense of the idyllic future it claimed to be building.Part comingofagestory, part portrait of an alreadybygone era, Anna Wieners memoir is a rare firstperson glimpse into highflying, reckless startup culture at a time of unchecked ambition, unregulated surveillance, wild fortune, and accelerating political power. With wit, candor, and heart, Anna deftly charts the tech industrys shift from selfappointed world savior to democracyendangering liability, alongside a personal narrative of aspiration, ambivalence, and disillusionment.Unsparing and incisive, Uncanny Valley is a cautionary tale, and a revelatory interrogation of a world reckoning with consequences its unwitting designers are only beginning to understand.
