And so dear Reader this tale ends and in the last throes of exhaustion I place it in a whiteline jump—where it emerges you know, I know not. But now you have read it, and in your brain a whitsun burns forever.

  “The Memory of Whiteness is very beautiful and exhilarating. It confirms Robinson’s place as one of the most promising, original writers of the decade—and beyond.”

  —Locus

  “A powerful mature work by one of the major new writers in the field.”

  —Norman Spinrad

  “The bold originality and poetic polish of The Memory of Whiteness comes as no surprise. [Robinson] has created a truely new universe, a future high-tech civilization based on music. The novel is altogether an impressive achievement.”

  —Jack Williamson

  “Intensely visual … a large cast of well done characters … The sheer splendor of Robinson’s language carries the book.”

  —Chicago Sun Times

  This is a work of fiction. All the characters and events portrayed in this book are fictional, and any resemblance to real people or incidents is purely coincidental.
