Several stories intersect in this novel: Lauren and Jason's unhappy marriage, Lauren's love affair with Adrien-Michel, and a lost silent film titled The Death of Marat.
The Death of Marat appears again or is alluded to in Erickson's novels Amnesiascope and Zeroville,[7] and several of the characters that Erickson writes about here also appear in other works including Tours of the Black Clock, Arc d'X and The Sea Came in at Midnight.
Reviewing the book, Michael Ventura of the Austin Chronicle wrote: "Erickson is brilliant. Period."[8]
