Gnomon

There's an awful lot to chew on here, so much so that it feels almost wrong to write a review after one reading. It demands a reread, but I think I could read this a hundred times and still not find every allusion, every sly reference, or unpick every layer. It's a big, brave book, wrapped in a future dystopia but echoing back through time, with plenty to say about our current society and the directions it could be headed in. It won't be for everyone, but if it clicks with you, it'll really click. Good work, Mr Harkaway!
