ОглавлениеAdvance Praise for The Stranger Game
“‘Following’ gets a whole new meaning in Peter Gadol’s stylish psychological thriller set in the future of the day after tomorrow. A moody, increasingly dangerous house of mirrors where the rules morph as his players become more obsessed with ‘the stranger game.’”
—Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander and The Revolution of Marina M.
“The Stranger Game is a gripping and nuanced novel that asks whom we trust and why. It is about being an insider and an outsider, about being watched and finally being truly seen.”
—Ramona Ausubel, author of Sons and Daughters of Ease and Plenty and No One Is Here Except All of Us
“The ingenious conceit of Peter Gadol’s novel—to literalize our obsession with online following—yields a psychological thriller that brilliantly exposes the state of the culture, one in which we have traded authentic emotional connection for a virtual one whose implications for the soul are troubling. Like the best of Highsmith and Hitchcock rolled into one, The Stranger Game is a compulsively absorbing and thought-provoking triumph.”
—Marisa Silver, author of Little Nothing and Mary Coin
“If you’ve ever spent time people watching, or if you yourself have ever felt watched or followed, you’ll see yourself in Peter Gadol’s The Stranger Game—and it will unnerve you. This is the perfect novel for a world in which real human connection is so elusive.”
—Will Allison, author of Long Drive Home
“Imagine a metaphysical thriller inspired by Patrick Modiano and illustrated by Giorgio de Chirico and you’ll have an idea of this enigmatic novel, The Stranger Game.”
—Edmund White
