The Keep by Jennifer Egan
"E" Author
I'm torn on this book. I really didn't care for it the entire time I was reading it, there's some confusion about the narration which is essential to the mystery of the novel, but beyond that there is some supernatural/sci-fi elements which I didn't like. She wrapped it up nicely at the end so all the pieces fit, but I probably won't be passing this along or recommending it. It's an "eh" kinda book.
Quote: "People are bored......What's missing? What do they need? What's the next step? And then I got it: imagination. We've lost the ability to make things up. We've farmed out that job to the entertainment industry, and we sit around and drool on ourselves while they do it for us."
