Snow Crash in Extra Large Print Summary
|
It’s the world of the almost-near future where the United States exists as a patchwork of corporate-franchise city-states, the mafia is a legitimate business, and the Internet provides a functioning virtual world. The hero of the story is Hiro, a hacker, samurai swordsman, and pizza-delivery driver. Snow Crash is a designer drug. The U.S. mail has been superceded by couriers on powered skateboards; and epic battles are fought in the virtual world with real world consequences. There’s an extended discussion of Sumerian myth and the power of words to physically shape the brain. And real world battles with a religious franchise entrepreneur who wants to annihilate all programmers. And an Inuit native who has super capabilities as an assassin. Serious adventure and serious social commentary. This is an extra large print publication specifically formatted by the Virginia M. Woolf Foundation for people who have trouble reading ordinary size print. Access to each chapter is from a linked menu. You can print and reduce the size with the Adobe Reader. You will receive versions in 18 and 28 point type and an ASCII version. The 18 point version contains 876 pages; the 28 point version contains 1943 pages. Notice: eBook download size will be 2.4MB. |
