Kurzbeschreibung
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.
Hephaestus Books represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Hephaestus Books continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. This particular book is a collaboration focused on William Gibson.
More info: William Ford Gibson (born March 17, 1948) is an American-Canadian writer who has been called the "noir prophet" of the cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction. His family moved frequently during Gibson's youth owing to his father's position as manager of a large construction company. While still a young child, a little over a year into his stay at Pines Elementary, Tom Maddox has commented that Gibson "grew up in an America as disturbing and surreal as anything J. G. Ballard ever dreamed". A few days after the death, Gibson's mother returned them from their home in Norfolk to Wytheville. At the age of 12, Gibson "wanted nothing more than to be a science fiction writer". He spent an unproductive few years at basketball-obsessed George Wythe High School, a time spent largely in his room listening to records and reading books. In the biographical documentary No Maps for These Territories (2000) Gibson said that his decision was motivated less by conscientious objection than by a desire to "sleep with hippie chicks" and indulge in hashish. Aside from a "brief, riot-torn spell" in the District of Columbia, Gibson spent the rest of the 1960s in Toronto, where he met Vancouverite Deborah Jean Thompson, with whom he subsequently traveled to Europe.
