WHAT IS “NORMAL”? WHAT IS “RIGHT”? AND WHO GETS TO DECIDE? To be a content moderator is to see humanity at its worst—but Kayleigh needs money. So she takes a job working for a social media platform whose name she isn’t allowed to mention. Her task: review offensive videos and pictures, rants and conspiracy theories, and decide which need to be removed. It’s grueling work. Kayleigh and her colleagues spend all day watching horrors and hate on their screens, evaluating them with the platform’s ever-changing moderating guidelines. Yet Kayleigh is good at her job, and she finds in her colleagues a group of friends—even a new girlfriend—and for the first time in her life, her future seems bright. But soon the job seems to change them all, shifting their worlds in alarming ways. How long before the moderators’ own senses of right and wrong begin to bend and flex? From one of the most acclaimed Dutch writers of her generation, We Had to Remove This Post is a chilling, powerful, and urgent literary masterpiece about who or what determines our worldview, who sets the boundaries, and just how much a person can be asked to accept.

Amsterdam Noir

By: Herman Koch,Hanna Bervoets

This anthology of new noir fiction set in the Dutch capital “features superior writing from authors largely unknown to an American audience” (Publishers Weekly). From its numerous coffee shops where drugs are openly available, to its world-famous Red Light District where prostitutes display themselves in shop windows, Amsterdam is a city where almost anything goes in broad daylight. And yet, this serene city of canals has its dark side as well. In fifteen tales of greed, jealousy and revenge, some of the finest Dutch crime writers—including literary award-winners and international bestsellers—explore the seamy shadows of this historic city. Amsterdam Noir features brand-new stories by: Michael Berg, Anneloes Timmerije, Murat Isik, René Appel & Josh Pachter, Simon de Waal, Hanna Bervoets, Karin Amatmoekrim, Christine Otten, Mensje van Keulen, Max van Olden, Theo Capel, Loes den Hollander, Herman Koch, Abdelkader Benali, and Walter van den Berg, whose story "Get Rich Quick" won the inaugural Literatuurprijs Nieuw-West award.

Ivanov

By: Hanna Bervoets

Moskou 1922: de bolsjewieken hebben de macht en een wetenschapper droomt van een hybride wezen, half mens, half aap. New York anno 1994 onderzoekt een virologe naar hiv en stuit op het werk van de Rus In ‘Ivanov’ weet Hanna Bervoets op soepele wijze de bizarre maar waargebeurde geschiedenis van de Russische held Ivanov te vermengen met de memoires van Felix. Moskou, 1922: De tsaar is verdreven, de bolsjewieken hebben de macht gegrepen en de vooruitstrevende wetenschapper Ilya Ivanov heeft één droom: een hybride wezen kweken, half mens, half aap. New York, 1994: De aidsepidemie is op een hoogtepunt, de stad wordt geteisterd door bedbugs en de jonge, homoseksuele Felix van der Elsken komt aan in de stad om te worden wie hij altijd wilde zijn. Het lukt Felix alleen niet zijn draai te vinden, tot hij virologe Helena Frank ontmoet. Zij onderzoekt de oorsprong van het hiv-virus en is geobsedeerd door de fameuze kruisingsexperimenten van Ivanov. Felix is op zijn beurt gefascineerd door Helena en haar jongere assistente Lois, en raakt verstrikt in een gevaarlijke driehoeksrelatie: wat wil Helena van hem, wat wil hij eigenlijk van haar? En welk geheim verbergen de twee vrouwen?

Finalmente no Brasil, o romance de uma das mais importantes escritoras holandesas da atualidade Kayleigh precisa de dinheiro. Justamente por isso, ela aceita um emprego como moderadora de conteúdo para uma plataforma de mídia social cujo nome não pode ser mencionado. Seu trabalho: revisar vídeos e fotos ofensivas, discursos e teorias da conspiração, e decidir quais precisam ser removidos. É um trabalho cansativo. Kayleigh e seus colegas passam o dia todo assistindo horrores em suas telas, e os avaliando conforme diretrizes de moderação em constante mudança. No entanto, Kayleigh é boa em seu trabalho. Pela primeira vez em sua vida, o futuro parece brilhante. No entanto, quando seus colegas começam a desmoronar, quando Sigrid, sua nova namorada, fica cada vez mais distante e frágil, quando seus amigos começam a defender as teorias da conspiração que deveriam estar avaliando, Kayleigh começa a se perguntar se o trabalho pode ser demais para eles. Felizmente, ela está bem — ou não está? Este post precisou ser removido , de Hanna Bervoets, é uma história arrepiante, poderosa e emocionante sobre o que — ou quem — determina como vemos o mundo.

Alles wat er was

By: Hanna Bervoets

Alles wat er was deel 2 (van 10) Acht mensen komen op een zondag in een schoolgebouw samen voor de opnamen van een wetenschapsprogramma. Maar die worden nooit gemaakt. Want plotseling klinkt er een knal. Op bevel van de autoriteiten gaan ramen, deuren en gordijnen dicht. En ze blijven dicht. Eerst dagen, dan weken. Door de ogen van tv-redactrice Merel zien we hoe de groep probeert zich staande te houden in een nieuwe wereld. Een wereld van duisternis en isolatie. Van slapen op een gymmat en tien korrels rijst per dag. Naarmate de voedselvoor raden verder slinken, lopen de spanningen tussen de schoolbewoners steeds hoger op. Als alles wat er was er niet meer is, wat is dan nog de waarde van liefde, loyaliteit en vriendschap?
