11/11/14 review of The Peripheral, by William Gibson

Here is a link to my Twitter thread review of the novel The Peripheral by William Gibson.

In my review, I compare The Peripheral to the film Blow-Up and The Matrix. I discuss some of the time travel and body-switching elements. I also wonder if sci-fi apocalypses are social corollaries for the crisis that precedes an individual's "hero's journey." This review also discusses Gibson's visit to the Tattered Cover Book Store in Denver to promote The Peripheral.

Here is a link to The Peripheral on William Gibson's website.

Also, I bought The Peripheral at the Tattered Cover Book Store, a bookstore chain in the Denver metro area.
