Transmission by Hari Kunzru [in AsianWeek]
With way too many viruses trying to get into my inbox every day, reading Transmission has been something of a voyeuristic romp.
Arjun Mehta can’t believe his good luck when he lands a job in Silicon Valley from his native India, but his technical dream is hardly what he expected once he gets there. Twelve daily lattes plus nine Cokes aside, in an attempt to save his job as an assistant tester for anti-virus software, the hapless hero unleashes a virus of his own … with ramifications that go global [the theme of this month, too – going global, that is].
