In a near-future America fragmented into corporate enclaves, Hiro Protagonist is a hacker and pizza delivery driver who uncovers Snow Crash—a dangerous new drug that functions as both a computer virus and a mind-altering substance. As he delves deeper into its origins, he discovers an ancient Sumerian conspiracy that threatens to enslave humanity by exploiting the deep structure of language itself.
