The new novel by Sabina Berman, an international bestselling author and one of the most influential voices in contemporary literature.<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\r\n\r\nIn Davos, during the most heavily secured summit on the planet, something is about to happen: the 1% that governs the world is about to witness its own disappearance. What no one suspects is that the architect of modern capitalism\u2014Arthur Wermer\u2014has come to destroy the very system he created.\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">In this allegory about power, inequality, and the planet\u2019s future, Wermer\u2014a Nobel Prize winner and author of the theorem that justified neoliberalism\u2014decides to correct his mistake: the intellectual formula that allowed a handful of tycoons to monopolize the world. After a heart attack and a heart transplant, he has found in bees an alternative model of cooperation and abundance. He arrives in Davos with a secret purpose: to erase the 1%.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">As the global elite gathers, an invisible army of workers\u2014cooks, waitresses, musicians\u2014activates Operation Suck, a spy network coordinated by Serena, a Mexican waitress who is in fact a labor lawyer, and Albert, the hotel\u2019s pianist. They use tiny metallic suction devices shaped like bees, gadgets that vibrate softly as they extract data from the cell phones of presidents, kings, and magnates.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">Meanwhile, Wermer slips past the tight control of Christine Jambes, the President of the World Bank, mingles with the protesters surrounding the summit, and confesses the truth: his theorem was a fallacy that fueled global inequality. He promises that the next day the \u201cThousand Owners of the World\u201d will disappear.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">And he delivers. During his conference before the elite, he explains that money is a universal fiction, a shared religion\u2014and as such, it can be undone. At that moment, Albert activates a virus that multiplies all the world\u2019s accounts by zero. It is the greatest financial cataclysm in history: blank markets, gutted ATMs, global panic. Without money, the 1% vanishes as an elite\u2014their economic and symbolic power dissolves within hours.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">The world enters a radical pause: work without wages? Only those who love their labor continue. The new privileged are those who have food. Humanity begins to reorganize from the countryside, amid tensions, learning, and a new relationship with nature.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">The conspirators disperse. Wermer returns to his bees. Christine queues to buy potatoes. Spring arrives early, the air grows cleaner, and a new era\u2014silent and fertile\u2014begins to take shape.<\/span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">RELEVANT INFORMATION: <\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Sabina Berman is a Mexican writer, playwright, and screenwriter, considered one of the most important voices in contemporary literature and theater.
