Nathan Hill is a maestro. John Irving
It s 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson hasn t seen his mother, Faye, in decades not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she s reappeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she s facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel s help.
To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye s losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.

Nathan Hill
© Michael Lionstar
Impressive that a debutant, Nathan Hill, with his scintillating The Nix has given us a character who comes close to out-Trumping Trump . . . Just one of the many pleasures of this engaging story of a mother and son whose private travails become front-page news. New Year Highlights Observer
