The World Has to Know
Il Mondo Deve Sapere
A novel, a comedy, an investigation. It entertains, it makes you tremble and it pisses you off. The World Has to Know is the diary of a month in a call center. For thirty interminable days, the author sold vacuum cleaners on the phone to thousands of housewives for Kirby, an American multinational. In the meantime, she observed the company’s techniques of persuasion and punishment, describing a working model halfway between Berlusconism and Scientology.
The World Has to Know describes temporary work in a way which is corrosive, pungent, full of grace and of imaginativeness – miraculously making you laugh. Until you cry.
