Book ID/图书代码: 03277012B54090
English Summary/英文概要: Look – anyone who invents something really great has a moment where they think it’s going to destroy the world.
For the first time in her life, Fin is off the network. A few months ago, she was the inventor of a programme so powerful, so unusual that she was untouchable.
Until she wasn’t.
Meanwhile, people have started disappearing from the streets of the city and the technology she created might be implicated.
Square Eyes is a graphic novel about a future where the boundaries between memory, dreams and the digital world start to blur. It’s a kaleidoscopic mystery story which asks: in a city built on digital illusion, who really holds the power? What is weakness? And when is it most dangerous?
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 听着,任何一个发明了非常伟大的东西的人都会有这样的时刻,他们认为它会毁灭世界。

直到她不再接触。
与此同时,人们开始从城市的街道上消失,她创造的技术可能与此有关。
