Sinopse

A "shamelessly funny" (Kirkus) and utterly original new novel from Mark Leyner about a father and his intense and devout relationship with his daughter and with alcohol.

An anthropologist and his daughter travel to Kermunkachunk, the capital of Chalazia, to conduct research for an ethnography on the Chalazian Mafia Faction (a splinter group of the Chalazian Children’s Theater). The book takes place over the course of a night at the Bar Pulpo, Kermunkachunk’s #1 spoken-word karaoke bar. Moreover, it’s Thursday, “Father/Daughter Nite,” when the bar is frequented by actual fathers and daughters as well as couples cosplaying fathers and daughters.

Somehow emanating from the letters on an optometrist’s eye chart, from karaoke screens in the bar, and from posters on a piazza that’s the scene of phantasmagorical and unending mob wars, Daughter (Waiting for Her Drunk Father to Return from the Men's Room) relentlessly pulls the rug out from under itself, leaving you suspended in a state of perpetual exhilaration.

Leyner, one of the most blazingly imaginative and influential writers of the last thirty years, has not only written his funniest novel, he’s broken through to something entirely unprecedented. Imagine tripping on a hallucinogen made by an alien intelligence and then wanting to immediately call your dad (in this world or the next) and tell him that you love him.

It’s a novel about the deep pleasures of reading and drinking, the tumultuous reign of a cabal of mystic mobsters, and, of course, the transcendent love of a father for his daughter.

Resumo da Crítica

“Part epic and part exegesis, part folktale and part gravy bender, part song and part scream. A fiction…that screams all the parts.”—Mitch Therieau, n+1

"Narrative form is an ever malleable plaything in Leyner’s ostentatiously acrobatic new novel. . . . shamelessly funny."—Kirkus Reviews

"With Last Orgy of the Divine Hermit, Mark Leyner—comic virtuoso, avant-garde literary tummler, trope-exploder extraordinaire—has outdone himself. After more than three decades, he remains the funniest and bravest of writers, not to mention the one least interested in stale conventions of fiction. We are lucky to have Leyner. Without his books to read, I probably would have enucleated my eyes with a melon-baller a long time ago."—Sam Lipsyte, author of Hark and The Ask
