Full description for Mobius Dick
In "Mobius Dick", physicist John Ringer, receives a mysterious text message that triggers an investigation into the development of new mobile phone technology in a research facility outside a remote Scottish village. Already the world is becoming a very different place: amnesia, telepathy, false memory and inexplicable coincidences all seem to be occurring more frequently with humorous, brain teasing results. Could quantum experiments have caused the collapse of our universe's space-time continuum? Could the multi layered text we are reading come from another world altogether? 'Crumey is one of my three or four favourite modern writers - a wise, funny, alert and original novelist who has never disappointed' - Jonathan Coe. 'I loved it! Just exhilerating!' - Fay Weldon. 'But while "Mobius Dick" is a work of sophisticated erudition, its playfulness and artistry make it a page-turner, too. It is perhaps the only novel about quantum mechanics you could imagine reading while lying on a beach.' - Joseph O'Connor. 'solid plutonium, and unflaggingly enjoyable' - "Sunday Times". 'the most rewarding book I have read all year' - "Independent On Sunday". 'It would be nice to think that this magnificent piece of work stood a chance of winning the Booker. It's certainly my novel of the year.' - "Time Out". 'There's no room here to do justice to the density of ideas Crumey unpacks with admirable lightness.' - "Sunday Herald".
