"This novel follows Paul a young Brooklyn-based author as his drug addiction spirals out of control. Though he experiments at first in the name of artistic expression Paul becomes consumed by apathy tripping during interviews and drifting out of touch with old friends. He meets and marries Erin a fellow artist drug user and they move to Taipei Taiwan where they become performance artists videotaping themselves while on drugs in public. As their relationship breaks down Paul nearly overdoses and is finally thankful to be alive. The characters are visibly suffering from loneliness desperately wounded self-esteem and an aimlessness that leads them to wander from poetry reading to movie theater to party to party making the briefest and shallowest of encounters with those around them. Tao Lin s writing style is definitively unique and mirrors the shifting reality his drugged characters perceive when submerged in their daze. At times however it is a haze too thick for the unencumbered reader to peer through --Sarah Grant --www.amazon.com
