Gnomon
by Nick Harkaway
I adore this book! It is delightfully complex, beautifully written, and leaves you feeling like you’ve accomplished something in the reading. This is not a novel you can rip through in a day. The first time I read it I finished the book, shut the cover for about thirty seconds then started it back over from the beginning. I’ve now read it three times. It’s got layers of storytelling that when taken separately would all make great compelling novels, but when woven together become more than the sum of their parts. It’s sci-fy and fantasy, part cautionary tale, and part exploration of the human experience. It’s not a book everyone will enjoy, you have to like getting a little lost in the weeds. If you are not comfortable not immediately understanding what you are reading this book is not for you.
