anda's game

doctorow's latest reworking of a well-known SF work is anda's game. from his o'reilly interview:

It's a story of little girls who are pressed into working in sweat shops in games, who spend all day doing repetitive grinding tasks like making shirts, which are then converted into gold and sold on eBay. It's about the first union organizer who goes into cyberspace to organize these little girls.
