About this book
Unlike the typical steampunk,, Neal Stephenson’s masterpiece does not feature steam and clockwork technology, but futuristic nano-technology that’s pervaded society on every level. This novel is so much more than just “another look” at an alternate future; it’s a vision of a future world in which Victorianism is a political fashion that people choose to adopt; an era in which the future has re-adopted classic values rather than evolved new ones. Basically, Stephenson’s vision of the future is one in which the ultra modern is juxtaposed with the antique, both in culture and technology.
