It's working from home as you've never seen it before, as Gerald finds himself at ones and zeros inside his company's Slack chat in this hilarious debut novel, SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE TYPING, from Calvin Kasulke narrated entirely in the app's #channels.

'smooth... funny read that does something smartly original both with the form of the novel and the tropes of science fiction. Office-comedy meets Tron. Why doomscroll twitter when you can blissscroll this book?'
Adam Roberts

'A deadpan allegory for the autocorrect generation - less a novel, more a full out-of-body experience' Liam Brown


"A brilliant, laugh-out-loud funny slice of unglued genius about the triumphs and tyranny of the online workplace. Deliciously weird and wonderfully real... a must-read for anyone who's ever suspected that the people on the other side of the screen are not all there."
Max Barry, author of Lexicon and Providence

"If you've ever felt imprisoned by work, the internet, or your mortal body, buy this book twice."
Tony Tulathimutte, author of Private Citizens

Slyly satirical debut... the novel wittily addresses the dehumanising absurdities of modern office life.
