“An arresting posthumous novel . . . An eerie dreamlike logic expands Marlane’s struggle for creative agency into a hypnotic consideration of how memories can distort or shape reality. In this funhouse narrative, meaning slips away into an accelerating spiral of bizarre events. Readers will find it an impressive exploration of an artist’s inner life.”—Publishers Weekly
