In Jonathan Lethem''s wryly funny second novel, we meet a young man named Chaos, who''s living in a movie theater in post-apocalyptic Wyoming, drinking alcohol, and eating food out of cans.

It''s an unusual and at times unbearable existence, but Chaos soon discovers that his post-nuclear reality may have no connection to the truth. So he takes to the road with a girl named Melinda in order to find answers. As the pair travels through the United States they find that, while each town has been affected differently by the mysterious source of the apocalypse, none of the people they meet can fill in their incomplete memories or answer their questions. Gradually, figures from Chaos''s past, including some who appear only under the influence of intravenously administered drugs, make Chaos remember some of his forgotten life as a man named Moon.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jonathan Lethem

Jonathan Lethem é um dos mais importantes escritores norte-americanos contemporâneos. A sua primeira obra, Gun With Occasional Music revelava já um autor empenhado em subverter e fundir diferentes géneros literários. Em 1999, com Órfãos de Brooklyn, homenageava o universo policial. A obra foi galardoada com o National Book Critics Circle Award e o Gold Dagger, sendo ainda incluída em várias listas de melhores livros do ano. Em 2003, com The Fortress of Solitude, conseguiu o seu primeiro bestseller do New York Times. Em 2005, foi premiado com a MacArthur Fellowship, também conhecida como "a bolsa dos génios". Nascido em Brooklyn, onde passou grande parte da infância e juventude, nunca acabou os estudos superiores, tornando-se um leitor compulsivo. Durante anos trabalhou em livrarias, até vender para cinema os direitos do seu primeiro romance. Desde então, dedica-se unicamente à escrita.
