A World of Surveillance and Secrets

At the heart of "Little Eyes" lies a chilling premise: a seemingly harmless toy, the "little eye," becomes a ubiquitous presence in society. This miniature robotic beetle, equipped with a camera, grants its users the ability to spy on anyone from anywhere, at any time.

As the little eyes proliferate, they gradually transform the fabric of society. Privacy becomes a distant memory, and the line between the public and private spheres is irrevocably erased. Citizens live under the constant scrutiny of countless watchful eyes, creating an atmosphere of paranoia and dread.

Through the lens of this surveillance society, Schweblin explores the profound implications of technology on human relationships and the nature of freedom. "Little Eyes" raises important questions about the ethics of observation, the boundaries of privacy, and the consequences of a world where secrets can no longer be kept.

Unforgettable Characters in a Haunting Tale

Within this dystopian world, Schweblin introduces us to a cast of characters who embody the complexities of the human condition. There's Kendra, a young woman who becomes entangled in a web of surveillance and manipulation.
