Former Silicon Valley executive writes ‘irreverent expose’

NEW YORK, N.Y. – A former Facebook manager, Twitter adviser and startup executive has written a “no-holds-barred” book about Silicon Valley.

The publishing imprint Harper told The Associated Press on Thursday that Antonio Garcia Martinez’s “Chaos Monkeys: Obscene Fortune and Random Failure in Silicon Valley” will be released June 28. According to Harper, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, Martinez’s memoir is an “irreverent expose” about online marketing and social media.

Martinez’s jobs have included Facebook’s product manager and CEO of AdGrok, an ad tech company acquired in 2011 by Twitter.
