About this ebook

The only tie-in book for USA’s award-winning series MR. ROBOT, Elliot’s journal—Red Wheelbarrow—is written by show creator Sam Esmail and show writer Courtney Looney.

Before and during the events of season two, Elliot recorded his most private thoughts in this journal—and now you can hold this piece of the series in your hands. Experience Elliot’s battles to gain control of his life and his struggles to survive increasingly dangerous circumstances, in a brand-new story rendered in his own words.

The notebook also holds seven removable artifacts—a ripped-out page, a newspaper clipping, a mysterious envelope, and more—along with sketches throughout the book. You’ll discover the story behind MR. ROBOT season two and hints of what is to come. This book is the ultimate journey into the world of the show—and a key to hacking the mind of its main character.

MR. ROBOT is a psychological thriller that follows Elliot (Rami Malek, The Pacific), a young programmer, who works as a cyber-security engineer by day and as a vigilante hacker by night. Elliot finds himself at a crossroads when the mysterious leader (Christian Slater, Adderall Diaries) of an underground hacker group recruits him to destroy the firm he is paid to protect.

TL;DR if you're a fan, buy this. Can't stress how good it is. I'm rarely this impressed with film/tv tie-ins. Rave review time: Deeply disturbing. Sickeningly funny. Surprisingly honest. This has inspired quite a few fan theories, showed a less guarded side of Elliot, and Mr. Robot's true colors (if you were ever hoping they could be a team, you'll likely feel as betrayed as I did discovering how cruel he can get in there). Elliot is actually hilarious in a macabre way. He tells us a lot more about his mother, cuts in some cute stories about Darlene growing up. The best part about having the physical copy are the inserts, including several "clues" about Tyrell Wellick torn from a gossip column, a flyer for the church group, and more. Sam Esmail paid so much attention to the little details, as always, that the actual entries are even based off of Rami Malek's handwriting. Couldn't say the same for Christian Slater for sure but it looks similar enough to the times we saw it onscreen.
