When Guerrilla Gardeners Meet Silicon Valley Gods
A young woman stands on an abandoned farm in New Zealand, photographing overgrown fields and calculating crop yields. Within minutes, a stranger who spotted her from his private plane has infiltrated her phone, reading her texts, tracking her movements, and preparing to reshape her entire reality. This is not a dystopian fantasy-it's the opening gambit of Eleanor Catton's "Birnam Wood," a novel that asks: What happens when environmental idealists collide with surveillance capitalism? When Barack Obama included this book on his 2023 summer reading list, he recognized what critics worldwide had already discovered-a thriller that transforms Shakespeare's "Macbeth" into a meditation on power, complicity, and the price we pay for compromising our principles. The guerrilla gardening collective at the novel's heart believes they're planting seeds of revolution. They don't yet realize they're being cultivated themselves.
