Overview
From the author of Easy Travel to Other Planets, here is "a work of high art—intelligent, sophisticated and funny, a truly original book" (New York Times Book Review).
From the hills above Los Angeles to the French town where Hitler once danced his victory jig, this alluring novel cruises the intersection between the farcical and the tragic.
Praise for Ted Mooney
“[A] combustible literary cross between Hawkesian avant-garde and Don DeLillo’s post-modern cool.”—The New York Times
“Unsettling, coolly intense. . . . Mooney is a risk-taking adventurer in novelistic possibilities.”—San Francisco Chronicle
“Equally enchanting and disorienting.”—Boston Book Review
