Karl Olsberg: Boy in a White Room
Reading and conversation
Manuel awakes in a white room, unable to remember anything. He doesn’t know what he is, who he is, or how he came into the room. His only contact to the outside world is a computer-generated voice. He learns from her that he was critically wounded during an attempted kidnapping. This young adult novel full of twists and turns deals with the risks of artificial intelligence and poses philosophical questions about the relationship between man and machine. »The ultimate thriller about man and machine« [Süddeutsche Zeitung].
