- Book Synopsis
- This collection compiles his intensely personal takes on the most interesting and deplorable topics in post-postmodern America. It moves from original new fiction to insights on popular culture, cult and canonical authors, and problematic people. 'David Bowman and the Furry-Girl School of American Fiction' is a personal true adventure, as Lethem tries (with the help of a seeming expert) to elbow his way into literary respectability. 'The Collapsing Frontier' is a brand-new fictional journey into an ominous new unmapped realm. 'Calvino's 'Lightness' and the Feral Child of History' is an intimate encounter with a literary legend, where Calvino's Italy and Lethem's Brooklyn meet cute. In 'My Year of Reading Lemmishly' and 'Snowden in the Labyrinth' he explores courage, art, and the search for truth, with wildly different results. A bibliography is also provided as well as our usual Outspoken Interview.
