- Konec pana Y je román britské autorky vydaný v roce 2006. Kniha vypráví příběh studentky PhD. Ariel Manto, která se ve své výzkumné práci věnuje obskurnímu spisovateli Thomasovi E. Lumasovi, jehož dílo Konec pana Y obestírá tajemství. Najde extrémně vzácný výtisk románu T. Lumase Konec pana Y v antikvariátu.

| - Konec pana Y je román britské autorky vydaný v roce 2006. Kniha vypráví příběh studentky PhD. Ariel Manto, která se ve své výzkumné práci věnuje obskurnímu spisovateli Thomasovi E. Lumasovi, jehož dílo Konec pana Y obestírá tajemství. Najde extrémně vzácný výtisk románu T. Lumase Konec pana Y v antikvariátu. Kniha je dle legendy prokletá – každý, kdo si ji přečetl, zemřel nedlouho poté. Centrem Lumasovy knihy je „troposféra“ – místo, kde je celé vědomí připojeno a kde je možné se připojit k myslím dalších lidí a číst jejich myšlenky. Kniha obsahuje recept na homeopatický vzorec, který Lumasův hrdina používá pro vstup do troposféry. Ariel použije recept a následně vstoupí do troposféry sama. Konec pana Y je myšlenkový experiment formulovaný jako současně-dobrodružný román, který klade otázky o myšlení, jazyku, osudu, a řeší limity bytí a času. Kniha byla nominována na Le Prince Maurice Prize 2008 a Orange Prize 2008. (cs)
- The End of Mr. Y is a novel by British author Scarlett Thomas. The book tells the story of Ariel Manto, a PhD student who has been researching the 19th century writer Thomas Lumas. She finds an extremely rare copy of Lumas' novel The End of Mr. Y in a second-hand bookshop. The book is rumoured to be cursed - everyone who has read it has died not long afterwards. Central to Lumas' book is the "Troposphere" – a place where all consciousness is connected and you can enter other people's minds and read their thoughts. The book contains the recipe for a homeopathic formula that Lumas' hero uses to enter the Troposphere. Manto uses the recipe to reproduce the formula and subsequently enters the Troposphere herself. She soon discovers that there are other people who know about the Troposphere, and intend to keep it a secret, even if that means killing her. The book mentions that her surname is fictitious and based on an anagram; Ariel Manto is an anagram of I am not real. As have Janette Turner Hospital and Andrew Crumey, the writer explores the relationships between quantum physics and post-modernist and deconstructionist theory. The description of the Troposphere has been compared to the novels of Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, and shares similarities to The Matrix. It was long-listed for the Orange Prize for Fiction in 2008, sold 150,000 copies, and won a Nibbie award for best cover. (en)
