Summary:
Thomas Bunting, the charming, chaotic, and deeply untruthful narrator of Wood's wonderful first novel, is in despair. His marriage is disintegrating and his academic career is in ruins: instead of completing his philosophy Ph.D., he is secretly writing what he hopes will be his masterwork, a vast atheistic project he has privately entitled "The Book Against God."
