Summary

"Black Mirror is Charlie Brooker's biting satire on technology and modern media. Over the last ten years, technology has transformed almost every aspect of our lives before we've had time to stop and question it. In every home; on every desk; in every palm - a plasma screen; a monitor; a Smartphone - a black mirror of our 21st Century existence. Our grip on reality is shifting. We worship at the altars of Google and Apple. We have access to all the information in the world, but no brain space left to absorb anything longer than a 140-character tweet. Black Mirror is a hybrid of The Twilight Zone and Tales of the Unexpected which taps into our contemporary unease about our modern world. The five stand-alone dramas in this collection are all sharp, suspenseful and satirical tales - some comic, some shocking, but all with a 'techno-paranoia bent' and all entirely unlike anything else you've seen on television"--Container
