Jennifer Egan is an American novelist. She briefly dated Steve Jobs while he was running Apple the first time and while she was in school. He apparently just came in into her dorm room and set up a Mac in there for her. There's a character in this book who invents like a tech thing that most of the book revolves around, which is my understanding.
It only took 500-or-so episodes to revisit the world of Egan's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel A Visit from the Goon Squad. We did, of course, have to wait for Egan to write her sequel (sort of) novel. This follow-up to a post-postmodern classic is focused on memories (digital and otherwise) and relationships (virtual and otherwise). It's got "what if the Meta but for everyone's memories" okay??
