Geek Love by Katherine Dunn


I read it when it came out and then picked it up again this weekend. I bet a lot of people here have read it. No use trying to summarize--any blurb I've seen has trouble describing it.

If you've ever read Infinite Jest--and if you have, you're a better man than I--it's something like that. Except, with Infinite Jest, it didn't matter how much I longed to read it. I just... couldn't... do it. Geek Love has the power without requiring that level of commitment.
