Jonathan Lethem, acclaimed author of The Fortress of Solitude and Motherless Brooklyn, here takes the reader on a road trip through a post-apocalyptic USA. Since the war came and the bombs fell, Hatfork, Wyoming, has been a broken-down, mutant-ridden town. Young Chaos lives in the projection booth of the abandoned multiplex cinema, trying to blot out his present, but unable to remember his past. Then, over a can of dog food, the local tyrant Kellogg reveals to Chaos that those bombs never actually fell. The truth, in fact, is a little more complicated . . . So Chaos gets behind the wheel of an automobile and, accompanied by a fur-covered mutant female, sets out onto the empty highway for a journey to the edge of his American nightmare: in search of a missing identity and a stolen love.

So I read this book and I kept waiting for it to explain itself. The point here is it was such a fine example of Science Fiction that it raised enough questions as I read that the overall lack of direction didn't matter. It read well and satisfied the hunger for ever growing plot devices that explained just enough to keep you hooked. This is not a book for people that ask a question every time something doesn't make sense. This is a book for people that make make their own sense.
