A Nude Singularity tells the storyline of Casi, a child of Colombian immigrants who lives in Brooklyn and works in Manhattan as a public defender - one who, tellingly, hasn't lost a trial. Never. In the book we hear what happens when his sense of justice and even his sense of personal begin to crack - and exactly how his world then gradually devolves. It's a huge, ambitious novel evidently in the vein of DeLillo, Foster Wallace, Pynchon, and even Melville, and it's really told in a distinct, frequently hilarious speech, with a attractive human being empathy at its centre. Its panoramic reach takes listeners through criminal offense and courts, immigrant individuals and metropolitan blight, mass media savagery and mass media satire, scatology and boxing, and a good breathless heist worthy of any crime novel. If Infinite Jest jammed a pin in the map of mid-'90s culture and drew our trajectory from there, A Nude Singularity does indeed the same for the sensation of surfeit, brokenness, and exhaustion that permeates our civic and cultural lives today. Within the opening word of William Gaddis' A Frolic of His Own, a figure sneers, "Justice? You get justice within the next world. In this world, you get the law." A Nude Singularity unveils the extent of this gap and lands securely privately of those who are permanently getting the law.
