Rosenbaum’s The Ant King and Other Stories contains invisible cities and playful deconstructions of the form. In “Biographical Notes to ‘A Discourse on the Nature of Causality, With Air-Planes,’ by Benjamin Rosenbaum”—yes, his name is part of the title—the author imagines a world whose technologies and philosophies differ wildly from ours. The result is a commentary on the state of the art that is itself the state of the art.”
—Los Angeles Times Favorite Books of 2008
