Summary
Summary
Alex Shakar's New York Times Notable debut is hailed by author Jonathan Franzen as "exceptionally smart." This relentlessly contemporary satire explores the strange world of a trendspotter in the hyper-commercialized metropolis of Middle City. "The most sensitive, observant, and shrewdest of writers are preternaturally attuned to the undercurrents that twist and warp society, and Shakar, a seer with extraordinay literary skills and a piquant sense of humor, will join the ranks of George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, and Tom Wolfe."-Chicago TribuneAuthor
