August: Oval by Elvia Wilk

Berlin is changing. Economic inequality is spiralling out of control, the party is moving on.... Anja and Louis live on the mountain - an eco-community built and run by the corporation which Anja works for. It is an experiment in green living. But soon the mountain begins to malfunction. Across the city, the weather becomes increasingly unpredictable. Louis has become obsessed with a secret project: a pill that temporarily rewires the user's brain to be more generous. While Anja is horrified, Louis believes he has found the solution to capitalism and Berlin's increasing income inequality.
