This novel delves into the complexities of modern domestic life through the story of two brothers, Harry and George. Harry, a Nixon scholar, leads a quiet existence, while his brother George, a volatile TV producer, triggers a dramatic shift in Harry's life. The narrative explores themes of adultery, accidents, divorce, and death, painting a vivid picture of contemporary America.
It examines the strange jargons of its language, its passive-aggressive institutions, and the inhabitants' desperate craving for intimacy, often pushed away by litigation and paranoia. At its core, the book explores the spaces where the modern family reforms itself, focusing on personal transformation that is both terrifying and inspiring.
