How do people get so crazy? LR Penn, it seems, knows exactly how.
The Syzygy is a triptych constructed from a series of stylistically
disparate narratives that portray, in their own words, the novel's
main characters, three young adults working in Silicon Valley: a
patient in session with her psychotherapist, a blogger spouting
male chauvinist propaganda, and a man in confinement confessing to
his misdeeds. Over the course of the novel, the roots of the
characters' personalities are exposed and it is possible to discern
how the forces that shaped their lives have instilled in them the
anger, guilt, love, and lust that now govern their behavior. The
book's title refers to the interactions among the celestial bodies
in a gravitational system, and is suggestive of the inevitability
of the calamitous events that lead to the novel's dramatic
conclusion, as dictated by the inescapable past that is haunting
each of the three protagonists.
