Neal Stephenson lives in Seattle and we are very lucky to have him in store for a rare public appearance. Neal has written seven other novels, five of which have been shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award and won it for Quicksilver. Three of his last four novels have been on the New York Times bestsellers list.
ANATHEM: Fraa Ersmas has spent most of his life inside a 3,400 sanctury on the planet Arbre, but all that is about to change when he is chosen along with other scientists, philosophers and mathematicians to help save the world from certain doom. It’s a novel of huge scope, intelligence and imagination. Classic Stephenson.
