Matthew Pearl, The Technologists
|
Matthew Pearl’s first three novels, The Dante Club, The Poe Shadow and The Last Dickens have been translated into more than thirty languages, and have over one million copies in print combined. Critics have likened Pearl to E. L. Doctorow, and described him as “at the very forefront of contemporary novelists” (Caleb Carr), “sparkling with erudition” (Janet Maslin, The New York Times), and “the shining star of literary fiction” (Dan Brown). In his new novel, The Technologists (On Sale February 21, 2012), the acclaimed author takes a departure from his past three novels which focused on literary history’s greatest mysteries and transports readers to nineteenth-century Boston, where a war exists between the past and present, tradition and technology. |
