Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reader's Copy of Uncorrected Bound Galleys in paperback. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. 'F is for family. F is for fortune. F is for fraud. F is for fate.' "One day Arthur Friedland piles his three sons into the car and drives them to see the Great Lindemann, Master of Hypnosis. Protesting that he doesn't believe in magic even as he is led onto the stage, Arthur nevertheless experiences something. Later that night, while his family sleeps, he takes his passport, empties all the money from his bank account, and vanishes. In time, still absent from his family, he begins to publish novels and becomes an internationally famous author. His sons grow into men who manifest their inexplicable loss--Martin becomes a priest who does not believe in God; Ivan, a painter in constant artistic crisis; Eric, a businessman given to a fear of ghosts and hallucinations--even as they struggle to understand their father's disappearance and make their own places in the world." [publisher copy] "As with Thomas Pynchon's 'V,' or Tom McCarthy's 'C,' in Daniel Kehlmann's subtly yet masterly constructed puzzle cube of a new novel, readers and characters alike exist for a time in that hazy uncertain land, where there is not only the desire but the need to solve for x--or, in Kehlmann's case, 'F' . . . translated deftly from the German by Carol Brown Janeway . . . ambitious . . . elegant."--Joseph Salvatore, New York Times Book Review. "F is an intricate, beautiful novel in multiple disguises: a family saga, a fable, and a high-speed farce. But then, what else would you expect? Daniel Kehlmann is one of the great novelists for making giant themes seem light."--Adam Thirlwell. Pristine paperback ARC in yellow wrappers over a Rubik's rubric/cover image, w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.
