I submit this article as this public may be interested in the proposed «brainteaser[s]», and as of course Italo Calvino's Le città invisibili (in the list) we consider pretty much mandated for proper intellectual development - but I got intrigued, especially relevant to this public, by the summary of Elizabeth Tan's Rubik: > One night, Elena Rubik ... gets hit by a car and dies. Even in death, Elena’s presence is felt via her social-media profiles, her fan fiction, and the other detritus of her online life - and her existence reverberates across Rubik’s interconnected stories. These all take place within the same universe, which is basically ours except that the behemoths of Apple, Google, and Amazon are all replaced by Seed, a tech corporation with brilliant guerrilla-marketing schemes and questionable motives. Seed features heavily within the plot; so do characters that reappear, sometimes changing drastically, as well as pop-culture elements and fandoms unique to the Rubik world. The sections seem disconnected and random at first, but as you begin to put together the pieces, you’ll find a dark aura rippling through the book
