Colum McCann: Apeirogon (Hardcover, 2020, Random House)

Review of 'Apeirogon' on 'Goodreads'

A lot of what appealed to me about this book is the structure and the meta-fictional tricks. Exactly up my alley. I couldn’t help getting the occasional whiff of Richard Powers and the quotes from Borges were there, but in a “I know I’m not Borges so I’m not going to pretend” kind of way. This is perhaps the only way to tell the kind of stories McCann sets out to tell here.
