Episode 1: Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash, Part One

Released in 1992, Snow Crash is Neal Stephenson’s second major novel, but certainly his first breakaway hit. Snow Crash follows the exploits of Hiro Protagonist (yes, you read that right) and his partner Y.T., as they try to save the world from an "infocalypse," delving into the differences and similarities between viruses biological, spiritual, and informational.
