Über diesen Titel

Críticas

"A masterful performance."--Chicago Tribune

"Gibson nails the texture of internet culture: how it feels to be close to someone you know only as a voice in a chat room, or to fret about someone spying on your browser's list of sites visited."--The New York Times

"Completely contemporary...his best book."--San Francisco Chronicle Book Review

"[An] eerie vision of our time."--The New Yorker

"Pattern Recognition races along like an expert thriller, but it rides on a strong current of melancholy, of elegy for the broken and the vanished...Gibson knows he's building on ground zero."--GQ

"So good it defies all the usual superlatives."--The Seattle Times

"It turns out that William Gibson knows as much about the present as he does about the future...a masterful performance from a major novelist who seems to be just now hitting his peak. Welcome to the present, Mr. Gibson."--Chicago Tribune

"Gibson's first novel to take place in the present takes you on a reckless journey of espionage and lies and doesn't promise a safe return...wonderfully chilling...a dangerously hip book."--USA Today

"[Gibson], who invented the future with Neuromancer, shows he's just as skilled at seeing the present."--Entertainment Weekly

"A serious thriller set in the dystopian present...glossy [and] well-paced."--Time
