Teranesia
Encyclopedia : T : TE : TER : Teranesia
Teranesia is a 1999 science fiction novel by Greg Egan.
The novel explores an unusual connection between molecular genetics and quantum computing. However, most of the novel focuses on south-east Asian politics, repressed childhood guilt, evolutionary biology and academic life. There is some focus on sexuality: this time the lead character is merely gay (rather than some of the more exotic alternatives in other novels). One of the most memorable passages is a savage lampoon of some of the excesses of postmodernism.
