Neal Stephenson with the morning coffee
How much more am I loving my Kindle? I woke up this morning, flipped on the Kindle for the morning paper download and, lo!, there’s Anathem — Neal Stephenson’s newest novel. All reading of Pride and Prejudice, Nixonland, Click and anything else stop.
The timing is great, too. There is a bunch of reportage today that Bletchley Park is getting funding for renovation from a bunch of technology companies. (My favorite Neal Stephenson novel is Cryptonomicon, which is all about crypto in the 90s and during WWII. One of the characters, Randall Waterhouse, goes to Bletchley.)
