Bridge #2

Set in futuristic Tokyo, rebuilt after an earthquake, this is the story of a rock star who decides to marry a non-existent, virtual reality girl; the bemused American security consultant who has been sent to take care of him; and a teenage fan. This novel is a witty futuristic thriller. `Fast,witty and lovingly painted` - `GUARDIAN.` `Confirms Gibson as a realist writer for the post-Net generation` - `TLS.` `A true BLADERUNNER for the Nineties` - `GQ.`
----------------------------------------------------------
Idoru is the second book in William Gibson`s Bridge trilogy. Idoru is a science-fiction novel set in a postmodern, dystopian, cyberpunk future. One of the main characters, Colin Laney, has a talent for identifying nodal points, analogous to Gibson`s own:

Laney’s node-spotter function is some sort of metaphor for whatever it is that I actually do. There are bits of the literal future right here, right now, if you know how to look for them. Although I can’t tell you how; it’s a non-rational process.

— William Gibson, August 1999.
