I'm a big fan of Eggers, and his newest Viking epic is an absolute must-see.

我是埃格斯的超级粉丝，他最新的维京史诗绝对是必看的作品。

Tom deferred that much to the sensibilities of those East Eggers who might be on the train.

汤姆做了这一点让步，以免引起可能在这趟车上的那些东卵人的反感。

How did Eggers know that that was gonna be a trend in 2018?

Eggers 怎么知道这将成为 2018 年的趋势？

Eggers calls this fictional conglomerate -- which, by the way, looks a lot like a Google-Amazon mash-up -- " The Every" .

埃格斯称这个虚构的企业集团——顺便说一句，它看起来很像谷歌和亚马逊的混搭——“The Every”。

So I wanted to talk to Eggers about the novel and how far we may actually be from such a dystopia.

所以我想和埃格斯谈谈这部小说，以及我们离这样的反乌托邦还有多远。
