Synopsis
The "brilliantly realized" ( The New York Times Book Review ) breakthrough novel from visionary author Neal Stephenson, a modern classic that predicted the metaverse and inspired generations of Silicon Valley innovators Hiro lives in a Los Angeles where franchises line the freeway as far as the eye can see. The only relief from the sea of logos is within the autonomous city-states, where law-abiding citizens don't dare leave their mansions. Hiro delivers pizza to the mansions for a living, defending his pies from marauders when necessary with a matched set of samurai swords. His home is a shared 20 X 30 U-Stor-It. He spends most of his time goggled in to the Metaverse, where his avatar is legendary. But in the club known as The Black Sun, his fellow hackers are being felled by a weird new drug called Snow Crash that reduces them to nothing more than a jittering cloud of bad digital karma (and IRL, a vegetative state). Investigating the Infocalypse leads Hiro all the way back to the beginning of language itself, with roots in an ancient Sumerian priesthood. He'll be joined by Y.T., a fearless teenaged skateboard courier. Together, they must race to stop a shadowy virtual villain hell-bent on world domination., In this mind-altering romp--where the term "Metaverse" was first coined--you'll experience a future America so bizarre, so outrageous, you'll recognize it immediately - One of Time 's 100 best English-language novels Only once in a great while does a writer come along who defies comparison--a writer so original he redefines the way we look at the world. Neal Stephenson is such a writer and Snow Crash is such a novel, weaving virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just about everything in between with a cool, hip cybersensibility to bring us the gigathriller of the information age. In reality, Hiro Protagonist delivers pizza for Uncle Enzo's CosoNostra Pizza Inc., but in the Metaverse he's a warrior prince. Plunging headlong into the enigma of a new computer virus that's striking down hackers everywhere, he races along the neon-lit streets on a search-and-destroy mission for the shadowy virtual villain threatening to bring about infocalypse. Praise for Snow Crash "[ Snow Crash is] a cross between Neuromancer and Thomas Pynchon's Vineland . This is no mere hyperbole." -- The San Francisco Bay Guardian "Fast-forward free-style mall mythology for the twenty-first century." --William Gibson "Brilliantly realized . . .

- w***t (17)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéItem as described. Item was packed well. Tracking information didn't update, and received the item before tracking showed it had arrived. Didn't need to communicate with seller. I would purchase from this seller again.
- n***0 (222)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéBook arrived at the very end of the 13 day delivery window, otherwise all good, adequate packaging, item as described
- 2***a (71)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéThe book is a different version than what is described in the listing. On top of that the seller took days to ship the item and did not provide tracking info until requested multiple times. Gave the wrong tracking info to me and now it says my package is sitting in New Jersey awaiting pickup when the company I ordered from is based in India. How does it make sense. I wish I could just get my money back and order from a more reputable seller.
