The Four Fingers of Death (Little, Brown & Co.)
Rick Moody (The Diviners) will read and sign his sprawling new novel -- an "adaptation" of a (fictional) 1960s pulp horror movie. This one's for readers of Vonnegut and Pynchon, and we know there are a lot of you out there! "The book is entertaining and often poignant, probing the limits of technology, consciousness, and language in the face of grief." --The New Yorker "The Four Fingers of Death reads [...] like a 700-page Kurt Vonnegut book." --Time Out New York Rick Moody is the award-winning author of Black Veil, Demonology, The Diviners, Garden State, The Ice Storm, Purple America, and Right Livelihoods.
