Synopsis:

Having lived in a monastery since childhood away from the violent upheavals of the outside world, Raz becomes one of a group of formerly cloistered scholars who are appointed by a fear-driven higher power to avert an impending catastrophe. By the author of Cryptonomicon. 250,000 first printing.


Review:

"Stephenson's novels have always contained more than one level, and ANATHEM continues that practice, its surface story serving as a launching pad for multiple meanings, both metaphorical and allegorical. The novel is beautifully written.... A magnificent achievement." (Starred review)

David Pitt, Booklist Upfront, 07/01/2008

Review:

"One of Mr. Stephenson's best skills--as he has showed in QUICKSILVER, CRYPTONOMICOM and other novels--is his ability to present a puzzle, piece by piece, in such a way that the reader can gradually arrive at a solution along with the book's narrator. He is science fiction's Agatha Christie, placing a shocking revelation in full view but revealing it one small clue at a time."

Paul Boutin, Wall Street Journal, 09/09/2008

Book Description: William Morrow, 2008. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. Acclaimed author Neal Stephenson's new novel is a grand work of speculative fiction. The story follows Erasmas, a newly initiated avout to the Concent of Saunt Edhar, an ancient intellectual sanctuary. The rules of the Concent are complex and rooted in a deep tradition aimed to keep the turmoil and catastrophes of the outside world from disturbing the work of the fraas and suurs. Only once every decade may they venture out, and during that same week, the Apert, the extramuros may enter. The first Apert of Erasmas' life in the Concent promises to be exciting, but forces are conspiring to destroy his new home. The world of 'Anathem' is just on the edge of our own and utterly absorbing. Bookseller Inventory # 50199
