Atmospheric Disturbances: A Novel by Rivka Galchen
The novel is also very funny. The sheer oddness of Leo’s thoughts, and the inadvertently comical way in which he articulates them, break the tide of analytical information and make the story race along. Galchen owes debts to Thomas Pynchon: her sinister meteorological collective, the 49 Quantum Fathers, is surely a reference to Pynchon’s The Crying of Lot 49, a book similarly preoccupied with cults.
