“In an era when everything can be surveilled, all we have left is…” — The Diamond Age: Or, A Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer 📚 log(book)

★★★☆☆

My relationship with Neal Stephenson is marked by frustration and enjoyment alike. I liked Anathem a lot despite it's many flaws, because it hit the perfect sweet spot in subject matter for me. Diamond Age did not, so it's flaws stood out more.
