Hailed as \"a major work of art\" by \u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, his first novel in almost ten years spans the era between the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and the years just after World War I and moves among locations across the globe (and to a few places not strictly speaking on the map at all). With a phantasmagoria of characters and a kaleidoscopic plot, \u003ci\u003eAgainst the Day\u003c\/i\u003e confronts a world of impending disaster, unrestrained corporate greed, false religiosity, moronic fecklessness, and evil intent in high places and still manages to be hilarious, moving, profound, and so much more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022632993008,"sku":"9780143112563","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780143112563_p0.jpg?v=1763656719","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780143112563","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
