Merci à @Lo d’avoir signalé ce dernier dans son pouet d’hier. De #Binet j’ai pratiquement dévoré tout ce qu’il a écrit, à commencer par « HHhH » qui lui a valu le Goncourt du premier roman à l’époque, également construit comme un journal intime à la recherche d’un autre temps. Et bien sûr « La septième fonction du langage » et sa découverte du pouvoir de manipulation orale qui est une jolie variation du sujet de virus linguistique dans « Snow crash » de Neal #Stephenson. 2/3

If you like futuristic techno #thrillers sitting somewhere between #Gibson and #Stephenson or just to listen to the thoughts of a very sharp mind, please read one or more books by the excellent @jsundman. Maybe start by reading his new substack here https://johnsundman.substack.com/p/figuring-it-out?sd=pf John is not only an accomplished author who knows what he's writing about but also a voluntary firefighter and a real mensch, who does a lot of good for others.

Estoy leyendo una novela que habla del metaverso, una sociedad decadente, y auriculares con cancelación de ruido que funcionan.

In no meaningful order:
1. The Little Prince
2. Cryptonomican
3. Neuromancer
4. The Once & Future King
5. White Noise
6. Santiago: A Myth of the Far Future
7. Tie- LOTR, Dune, and Wheel of Time series
