        <dc:description>SUMMARY:
Only once in a great while doesnbsp;nbsp;a writer come along who defies comparison -- anbsp;nbsp;writer so original he redefines the way we look atnbsp;nbsp;the world. Neal Stephenson is such a writer andnbsp;nbsp;Snow Crash is such a novel, weavingnbsp;nbsp;virtual reality, Sumerian myth, and just aboutnbsp;nbsp;everything in between with a cool, hipnbsp;nbsp;cyber-sensibility to bring us the gigantic thriller of thenbsp;nbsp;information age. In reality, Hiro Protagonist deliversnbsp;nbsp;pizza for Uncle Enzo's Cosa Nostra Inc., but itnbsp;nbsp;the Metaverse he's a warrior prince. Plungingnbsp;nbsp;headlong into the enigma of a new computer virus that'snbsp;nbsp;striking down hackers everywhere, he races alongnbsp;nbsp;the neon-lit streets on a search-and-destroynbsp;nbsp;mission for the shadowy virtual villain threatening tonbsp;nbsp;bring about infocalypse. Snow Crashnbsp;nbsp;is a mind-altering romp through a future Americanbsp;nbsp;so bizarre, so outrageous... you'll recognize itnbsp;nbsp;immediately. From the Paperback edition.</dc:description>
