Praise for theMystery.doc : "This will get discussed as a big book--check out the page count." -- Library Journal "Glued precariously together from the documentary fragments of a shattered culture and a fractured psyche, as with Eliot's The Waste Land , Matthew McIntosh's huge and riveting theMystery.doc stakes out its territory in the unbroken ground of a new and unsettling American century. Haunted the same way that contemporary life is haunted--by snapshots and forgotten emails; scraps of dialogue and movie stills--this brave and massively accomplished book is both a savage exorcism and a dazzling celebration of the novel and the human heart, each with their endless possibilities. A transfixing statement in a shimmering new language." --Alan Moore, author of Jerusalem " theMystery.doc may seem capacious but is actually sly, shy, and precise, and Matthew McIntosh is ambitious in the good sense: he attempts something new, with new vitality, and at that, absolutely succeeds." --Rachel Kushner, author of The Flamethrowers and Telex from Cuba "1653 pages or not, theMystery.doc is light on its feet, it moves at different paces and rhythms as its different narrative voices, photo sequences, blasts and showers of type dance up and down its pages. There are family stories, national and global stories, stories that use human language that don't feel so human, there are pieces of finding one's way and losing it. It'll have been fourteen years since Well that theMystery.doc appears. One still hopes it won't be fourteen years until Matthew McIntosh's next one, though there is much here to carry one for a good, long time." --Rick Simonson, Elliott Bay Book Company "Wow. This is an incredibly ambitious work, amazingly complex and always intriguing. There were times throughout the novel where I was laughing out loud and others where I was on the verge of weeping. I can safely say I've never read anything like theMystery.doc ." --Keaton Patterson, Brazos Bookstore "A great delight to read, sometimes maddening, sometimes hilarious but also poignant in its investigation of loss. The mystery at the heart of the book is nothing less than the mystery and magic of life and death." --Mark LaFramboise, Politics & Prose Bookstore " theMystery.doc is an incredible experience. The story that Matthew is telling here feels like it couldn't have been communicated any other way. It's surprisingly intimate and personal. It felt like these could have been my memories, my photographs, my dreams and experiences. I found it deeply affecting and moving. I am grateful to be one of its early readers." --Robert Sindelar, Third Place Books " theMystery.doc plumb life's absurdities and explores its heartbreak, playing with form and convention, teasing meaning and even pathos from the unlikeliest places. I can think of no other novel that simultaneously pushes the boundaries and moves the soul like Matthew McIntosh's theMystery.doc ." --Ezra Goldstein, Community Bookstore " theMystery.doc is my favorite kind of book, one that I simply hand to someone with urgency saying, 'Read this.' It's an indescribable wonder." --Stephen Sparks, Point Reyes Books, Praise for theMystery.doc : "Sui generis genius." --Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer prize-winning author of Perfume River and A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain "McIntosh is a slacker Proust, writing about the underclass of Spokane rather than the upper classes of Paris as he attempts to convert memories and experience into art . . . Art installation, performance piece, vision board: These are odd ways to describe a novel, but McIntosh clearly wants to update that old genre, to give it a postmodern makeover . . . At a time when most novels still resemble their Victorian forebears, it's refreshing to encounter a novel that actually looks like a 21st-century production . . . a remarkable achievement." --Steven Moore, Washington Post "Perhaps the most useful way to think about theMystery.doc is as an experiential novel, one we live with (or through), rather than read . . . At the same time, it is surprisingly accessible for such a long book: not a critique of meaning so much as an evocation of meaning's aftermath--an expression, in other words, of the chaotic culture in which we live . . . [McIntosh's] predecessors include James Joyce, Marguerite Young, Thomas Pynchon, David Foster Wallace, William T. Vollmann, Karl Ove Knausgaard . . . It may seem strange to call a 1,660-page novel intimate, and yet this is what McIntosh is after, to mine the depths of a particular set of points of view." --David L. Ulin, 4Columns "A vast, beguiling . . . postmodern novel of ideas, misread intentions, and robots, told in words, pictures, symbols, and even blank pages . . . A sprawling yarn . . . Like kindred spirits William Vollmann and Mark Danielewski, McIntosh aspires to philosophy . . . Perplexing but often wonderful . . . Provocative and fascinating." -- Kirkus Reviews "McIntosh's second book (after Well ) is fourteen years in the making, an audacious, sprawling, messy, and aptly titled antinovel that rarely subscribes to a conventional narrative format. The volume is comprised largely of fragments of miscellaneous, seemingly arbitrary exchanges and entries from digital and analog sources, including emails and chats, voice and video recordings, photographs, film stills, lines of computer code, typographical symbols . . . A strange and unclassifiable work, which brings to mind visually stimulating projects like Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves . It will certainly find a following among fans of literary puzzles."-- Publishers Weekly "This will get discussed as a big book--check out the page count." -- Library Journal "Glued precariously together from the documentary fragments of a shattered culture and a fractured psyche, as with Eliot's The Waste Land , Matthew McIntosh's huge and riveting theMystery.doc stakes out its territory in the unbroken ground of a new and unsettling American century. Haunted the same way that contemporary life is haunted--by snapshots and forgotten emails; scraps of dialogue and movie stills--this brave and massively accomplished book is both a savage exorcism and a dazzling celebration of the novel and the human heart, each with their endless possibilities.
