Set in the San Francisco of 2013, I Hate the Internet offers a hilarious and obscene portrayal of life among the victims of the digital boom.

In his first full-length novel, Jarett Kobek tackles the pressing questions of our moment.

But some, dazzled and strangely entranced, remain to drift through this dreamworld forest.
