For readers of Leila Slimani's Lullaby or Ling Ma's Severance: a tight, propulsive, chilling novel.

Does what you see change who you are?

Kayleigh is broke. Out of options, she takes a job as a content moderator, reviewing horrors and hate online and deciding which posts need to be removed. Kayleigh is good at her job, and in her colleagues she finds a group of friends, even a new girlfriend. For the first time in her life, the future seems bright . . . But soon the job begins to shift Kayleigh's world in alarming ways. In the glare of the screen, how long can Kayleigh hold on to her humanity?

Hanna Bervoets' stunning novel We Had To Remove This Post is translated from the Dutch by Emma Rault.

'This novel gives us an acid glimpse into a new form of labor existing today . . . Fascinating and disturbing' - Ling Ma, author of Severance

Pressestimmen

The dank underside of social media, its cruelty and delusions, have become, our shared affliction. It needed an accomplished novelist to explore humanely the damage. Hanna Bervoets has richly obliged in this superbly poised, psychologically astute and subtle novel of mental unravelling. Ian McEwan, author of Atonement, On Chesil Beach and Amsterdam
