sessive novelist with a carefully constructed life who unwittingly joins a seductive circle of charismatic activists, who may or may not be part of Antifa. Never able to write much, now each time he's asked to describe his novel-in-progress, he offers an entirely different description than the one before-each one closer to the escalating events of his life, packed with the sexual misadventures and political violence he now finds himself entangled in. GAD'S BOOK marks the debut of a keen, incisive and very funny new voice.
