Pattern Recognition - William Gibson

July 01, 2003

For a change, WG's latest takes place in the near forseeable future, and doesn't weave in any of his old characters. The protagonist, Cayce, makes her living from her acute allergy to brands. The more successful a brand becomes, the more allergic she is, so she is employed to guage her response to designs. She's more interested in "The footage", a mysterious film that eppears regularly on the net with no known source.

Like all of Gibson's books it sucks you in, races you off, but often leaves you slightly lost at the end.

- rating 8/10
