Though primarily known as a novelist, over 30 years William Gibson has also built up a reputation as one of our most entertaining and insightful critics of modern day culture. He is widely credited with having described the internet and cyberspace before any such things existed.Distrust that one Flavour brings together for the first time his writings on a multitude of modern day subjects: the differing cultures of Japan and Singapore; music and the films; what's wrong with the internet; the interactive relationship between writers and readers; and many others. Also included in the book is a remarkable autobiographical sketch: his upbringing in the South, the first death of his parents and his escape into books; and the move to Canada to avoid the draft. Over the years Gibson has been eagerly commissioned by Wired, Rolling Stone, the New York Times and other influential journals, as well as tiny publishers, online sources and magazines that no more exist. These collected writings grant readers a privileged view into the mind of your writer whose thinking has shaped not only a generation of writers but our entire culture.
