I found this absolute brick of a book in a "give one take one" box, so I couldn't pass it up.

joachim@lire.boitam.eu reviewed Gnomon by Nick Harkaway
Demanding, but rewarding!
5 stars
It took me quite some time to read this book, but I really liked it. I wasn't expecting the final revelation, and I'll have to read it a couple of times more in order to link all the references and ideas expressed in the different narratives of the book.
The whole reflexion on surveillance society is also very interesting and timely.
