Buildings aren't big enough for Blade Runner yet, and there's still a veneer of government control.

(ETA: No one's said it yet, but 1984 is so obvious that it wasn't worth mentioning.)

Its a book and its called:

Parable of the Sower, By Octavia E. Butler.

The Parable of the Talents was a difficult read. I think of it often. It's a damn shame there aren't more in the series
