Wilson

A “curiously compelling” novel by the Pulitzer prize–winning playwright in which the internet crashes and the past is reconstructed from memories. (Publishers Weekly) When the Internet—and the collective memory of the twenty-first century—crashes, the past is reassembled from the downloaded memories of Ginger, wife of ex-President Wilson. The transcripts take the reader on an intellectually breathtaking tour through David Mamet’s baroque, fragmented world, where nothing is certain except the certainty bestowed by the academy. “As erudite as can be, engagingly mischievous and occasionally a little chilling.” —The Sunday Times “Enticing . . . Mamet targets with luscious savvy and deadpan irony the limitless pretense of academics.” —Review of Contemporary Fiction fiction;speculative;novel;satire;pastiche;academic life;scholarship;near-future;experimental;Mars;settlement;colonization;science fiction;internet;dependency;social;political;historical;impact;futurist;modernist;literary;criticism;popular;culture;philosophical;humorous FIC052000 FICTION / Satire FIC064000 FICTION / Absurdist FIC028120 FICTION / Science Fiction / Humorous 9781683358794 Seeing Central Park Miller, Sara C
