Levitations
EASTON SMITH
Sinopsis
Millions of years ago, an asteroid struck Leefield. Over time, a town sprang up - factories, a Subway franchise, a New Age cult. Come the 21st century, decline has hit hard, until a speculative frenzy for space rocks leads to the reopening of a shuttered mine at the impact site. Then, two bizarre things happen near the mine - a boy disappears, and his friend begins floating in the air in a terrifying experience of levitation.
Suddenly, sleepy Leefield is a hive of activity. Among a crowd of grifters and conspiracy theorists, a group of burnouts - a failed Marxist academic, a disillusioned activist, a discourse-addled teen - clash over the meaning of the levitation. Is it a route to transcendence, or a malignant force that must be destroyed? Together they hurtle towards disaster, or renewal, in this absurdly funny and thrillingly contemporary novel about belief, despair and hope in a burning world.
