Pattern Recognition by William Gibson 25.95 |
Cayce Pollard is an expensive, spookily intuitive market-research consultant. In London on a job, she is offered a secret assignment: to investigate some intriguing snippets of video that have been appearing on the Internet.
"Gibson's recent novels have displayed a certain weariness with the tropes of science fiction. The completely contemporary 'Pattern Recognition' finds the author rejuvenated, ready to acknowledge that the world has become a stranger place than could have been imagined even 15 years ago. It's his best book in a long time, and perhaps his most accessible one ever."
