    "The Nix is a mother-son psychodrama with ghosts and politics, but it's also a tragicomedy about anger and sanctimony in America. Even the minor characters go to extremes--among them, a Home Ec teacher from Hell and an unrepentant plagiarist with presidential aspirations. 'A maestro of being awful,' the son calls his mom. 'Every memory is really a scar,' she tells him. For this mother and son, disappointment is 'the price of hope'--a cost they will both bear. Nathan Hill is a maestro of being terrific." --John Irving, "The Nix is a mother-son psychodrama with ghosts and politics, but it's also a tragicomedy about anger and sanctimony in America. Even the minor characters go to extremes--among them, a Home Ec teacher from Hell and an unrepentant plagiarist with presidential aspirations. 'A maestro of being awful,' the son calls his mom. 'Every memory is really a scar,' she tells him. For this mother and son, disappointment is 'the price of hope'--a cost they will both bear. Nathan Hill is a maestro of being terrific." --John Irving  "Nathan Hill's The Nix is a huge, intimate, funny, beautifully intelligent novel--one of those books that almost seems to be alive: you open it up and are pulled within, and you live in the heartbeat of its pages, day after day. This is a lovely, smart, surprising read." --Julie Schumacher, Thurber Prize-winning author of Dear Committee Members   "Ix-nay all plans and grab a copy of The Nix! Nathan Hill's novel is smart, inventive, and fun, as you might expect of a book that features a slew of elves  and  the 1968 Democratic Convention. I will read it again; I will keep it on my shelf of favorites, feed it sugar water, and hope it miraculously grows longer. Do you understand? The Nix is dead serious and delightful." --Sara Levine, author of Treasure Island!!!, "The Nix is a mother-son psychodrama with ghosts and politics, but it's also a tragicomedy about anger and sanctimony in America. Even the minor characters go to extremes--among them, a Home Ec teacher from Hell and an unrepentant plagiarist with presidential aspirations. 'A maestro of being awful,' the son calls his mom. 'Every memory is really a scar,' she tells him. For this mother and son, disappointment is 'the price of hope'--a cost they will both bear. Nathan Hill is a maestro of being terrific." --John Irving  "Pay attention. This is what a Great American Novel looks like. The Nix is culturally relevant, politically charged, historically sweeping, sad, full of yearning, sometimes dark but mostly hilarious. Nathan Hill is a literary powerhouse who will deservedly earn many comparisons to John Irving and Jonathan Franzen." --Benjamin Percy, author of The Dead Lands , Red Moon , The Wilding and Refresh, Refresh   "Hill's first novel offers an ironic view of 21st-century elections, education, pop culture, and marketing, with flashbacks to 1988, 1968, and 1944. . . . The Nix of Hill's title is a Norwegian mythological being that carries loved ones away, a physical and metaphorical representation of fear and loss, much like the Under Toad in John Irving's The World According to Garp . Like Irving, Hill skillfully blends humor and darkness, imagery and observation. He also excels at describing technology, addiction, cultural milestones, and childhood ordeals. Cameos by Allen Ginsberg, Walter Cronkite, and Hubert Humphrey add heart and perspective to this rich, lively take on American social conflict, real and invented, over the last half-century."  -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "Nathan Hill's The Nix is a huge, intimate, funny, beautifully intelligent novel--one of those books that almost seems to be alive: you open it up and are pulled within, and you live in the heartbeat of its pages, day after day. This is a lovely, smart, surprising read." --Julie Schumacher, Thurber Prize-winning author of Dear Committee Members   "Ix-nay all plans and grab a copy of The Nix!

    Synopsis
    Winner of the Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction A New York Times 2016 Notable Book Entertainment Weekly's #1 Book of the Year A Washington Post 2016 Notable Book A Slate Top Ten Book NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "The Nix is a mother-son psychodrama with ghosts and politics, but it's also a tragicomedy about anger and sanctimony in America. . . . Nathan Hill is a maestro." --John Irving From the suburban Midwest to New York City to the 1968 riots that rocked Chicago and beyond, The Nix explores--with sharp humor and a fierce tenderness--the resilience of love and home, even in times of radical change. It's 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson--college professor, stalled writer--has a Nix of his own: his mother, Faye. He hasn't seen her in decades, not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she's re-appeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news, beguiles the internet, and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she's facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel's help. To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye's losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.
