The mesmerizing "New York Times "bestseller by the author of "Night
Film"
Marisha Pessl's dazzling debut sparked raves from critics and
heralded the arrival of a vibrant new voice in American fiction. At
the center of "Special Topics in Calamity Physics" is clever,
deadpan Blue van Meer, who has a head full of literary,
philosophical, scientific, and cinematic knowledge. But she could
use some friends. Upon entering the elite St. Gallway School, she
finds some--a clique of eccentrics known as the Bluebloods. One
drowning and one hanging later, Blue finds herself puzzling out a
byzantine murder mystery. Nabokov meets Donna Tartt (then invites
the rest of the Western Canon to the party) in this novel--with
visual aids drawn by the author--that has won over readers of all
ages.
