Publisher's Synopsis

[A] mordantly funny requiem for the early 21st century . . . The odd touch of magic does nothing to diminish the story's uneasy relevance to the contemporary state of affairs. Fans of such paranoia masters as DeLillo and Pynchon should give this a look. - Publisher's Weekly

On the eve of Occupy Wall Street, C is broke. Once a renowned artist, she’s now divorced, alone, stuck with a stack of bills, a new erotic interest in her oldest girlfriend, and a persistent hallucination in the form of a gnome. Darkly funny and uncannily percipient, The Visitors counts down the last days of our digital age toward a strange climax.

The Visitors is a slim book with a lot going on. . . The book accepts, and even delights in, the strenuous absurdity of its characters' efforts to index the relationship between the virtual and the material, or to locate the source of reality in imagination. - Daisy Hildyard, The Guardian
