Hello.
You may now pre-order this:
“In his first novel, 26-year-old Miles Klee imagines post-urban New Jersey as a landscape of drugs, decay, loss—and perhaps, hope—and manages to make the ensemble wryly funny: something only a few notable contemporaries such as Jeff Vandermeer and Michael Chabon have been able to do.
In Ivyland, the world is instantly recognizable, but crumbling. In this interlinked series of short vignettes, Klee builds a future populated by a bumbling, murderous citizenry of corrupt cops, innocents, ravenous addicts, lovesick geniuses, and cynical adventurers—all operating in the shadow of a giant pharmaceutical corporation that thrives on people’s weaknesses … and may have an even more sinister agenda.
Klee, known best for his benevolent satire on The Awl and McSweeney’s, brings his mastery of a unique blend of dark humor, critical insights, and literary precision to his fiction debut.”
