Gilbert Sorrentino

A Strange Commonplace (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is Sorrentino's first novel since the PEN/Faulkner Award finalist, Little Casino, and should reach beyond the niche audiences developed for Lunar Follies and The Moon in Its Flight. The parts of this novel that address old-age and the relationships between fathers and sons resonate with a poignancy that transcends Sorrentino's usual cynicism. Sorrentino is a favorite among many of the more literary book bloggers, including a number of the Lit-blog Co-op members. In addition to the always stellar print review coverage, expect a great deal of internet chatter about this book.
