In print once more, a maelstrom of a novel from celebrated author Robert Lopez
Part of the World is a canonical juggernaut of lyrical language--ever dissolving, devolving, shifting, then reconstituting itself into a new knowledge of reality. The nameless narrator, hyper-compulsive and seemingly on a Quixotic journey to understand what has happened to him, is burdened by a trauma for which he is either the victim or perpetrator or perhaps both. All of this is slowly revealed as he navigates a peculiar purgatory wherein this trauma seems to happen over and over again.
