  • PopCo (2004) is a novel by British author Scarlett Thomas. It tells a story of twenty-nine-year-old Alice Butler, a quirky, fiercely intelligent loner with an affinity for secret codes and mathematics. She works for the huge toy company named PopCo, where she creates snooping kids' kits - KidSpy, KidTec and KidCracker. At the company conference Alice and her colleagues are brought into developing the ultimate product for the teenage girls. It bears more than a few similarities to Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson, including a buried treasure subplot and flashbacks to Bletchley Park. PopCo was a 2004 book of the year in Time Out and The Independent on Sunday
  • PopCo è un romanzo del 2005 della scrittrice inglese Scarlett Thomas. Presenta più d'una somiglianza a Cryptonomicon di Neal Stephenson, sia per la struttura narrativa che porta avanti più filoni in diversi contesti temporali, che per il tema della crittografia e crittoanalisi.
