Hari Kunzru presenta Gods without Men.

Hari Kunzru, the critically-acclaimed, award-winning author of The Impressionist, Transmission, and My Revolutions, will read from and sign his new novel Gods Without Men ($26.95 Knopf). Driven by the energy and cunning of Coyote, the mythic, shape-shifting trickster, Gods Without Men is full of big ideas, but centered on flesh-and-blood characters who converge at an odd, remote town in the shadow of a rock formation called the Pinnacles. Viscerally gripping and intellectually engaging, it is, above all, a heartfelt exploration of the search for pattern and meaning in a chaotic universe. (jpmoore)… (més)
