    I picked this up a few months ago while wandering around London and it is a delightful book, with a delightful tempo. Perhaps for those of us that lean more towards the Wong Kar-wei’s of the world than the peaks and tropes of airport bestsellers packed with big moments connected by flatlines.

      I'm reading this now and enjoying it.

      It's a book that should appeal to a lot of folks here.

      There is a combination of reflection on technology and life.

      As with most Booker Prize winners it is also extremely well written.

        It sounds like a very interesting book that I hadn't heard of before. I am struck though that it only had 29k sales in the whole UK, I know fiction sales are fairly low these days but hopefully this gets it to more eyes.
