The Wall Street Journal Review:"Dazzling." The Philadelphia Inquirer Review:"A big, sprawling book... He's infused it with so much inventive imagination.... It's a book that should be put in a Manhattan time capsule with the note: 'This is how we lived at the turn of the century.' " -The New York Times Book Review Review:"Wonderful writing... it sparkles with original observations about society, the media, marriage, Microsoft, computer hackers, the global economy and the new power triangle of New York, Los Angeles and Seattle." -USA Today Review:"Astonishing... An entertaining novel... Andersen [is] the first most promising novelist of the Third Millennium." -Entertainment Weekly Synopsis:Set in the year 2000, "Turn of the Century" is a panoramic, hyper-realistic, up-to-the-second comedy of manners that depicts marriage, family, friendship, and business as they are conducted in our giddy, anxious time, amplified by Andersen's explosive writing and dead-on wit. About the AuthorKurt Andersen is a columnist for The New Yorker. He was co-founder and editor of Spy magazine, and editor in chief of New York magazine. At Time, he was an award-winning writer on crime and politics, and for eight years the magazine's architecture and design critic. He has also created and produced several network television programs, and co-wrote Loose Lips, a satirical stage revue that has had productions in New York and Los Angeles.
