In this utterly unconventional novel -- or is it a memoir? -- Leyner gives a reading in the food court of a New Jersey shopping mall. The \"audience\" consists of Mark's mother and some stray Panda Express employees, who ask a handful of questions. The action takes place entirely at the food court, but the territory covered in these pages has no bounds.\u003cbr\u003e A joyride of autobiography, cultural critique, DIY philosophy, biopolitics, video games, demagoguery, and the most intimate confessions, GONE WITH THE MIND is both a soulful reckoning with mortality and the tender story of the relationship between a complicated mother and an even more complicated son.\u003cbr\u003e At once nostalgic and acidic, deeply humane and completely surreal, GONE WITH THE MIND\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eis a work of pure, hilarious genius.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Leyner\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the novels \u003ci\u003eGone with the Mind\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Sugar Frosted Nutsack; My Cousin\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMy Gastroenterologist\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eEt Tu, Babe\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eThe Tetherballs of Bougainville\u003c\/i\u003e.
