Krátky popis
The Art of Asking Your Boss for a Raise-neurotic and pessimistic,
yet endearing, comic, and never less than entertaining-is a
penetrating vision of the world of office work. As translator David
Bellos writes, it shows us what 'computers, perhaps even those
powered today by AI, simply cannot do: make us laugh and make us
cry'. This playful novel originated with a 1968 invitation from
IBM, then searching for a writer to explore the use of computers in
literature.Georges Perec took up the invite and programmed an early
computer to follow the steps an employee of a large corporation
would take to submit a successful request for a raise. (Perec
himself was such a lowly employee at the time, his prospects of
getting a raise as dim as those of the narrator of this tale.) From
that algorithmic experiment grew this pioneering and enduring
fiction.
