Please register at the Oakland Library or contact Andrew Miller at andrew@relib.net for more information. "The time: not so long from now. The place: AutoAmerica, a country surveilled by one “Aunt Nettie,” a Big Brother that is part artificial intelligence, part internet, and oddly human—even funny. The people: divided.
