With echoes of Justin Taylor, Tony O’Neill, and Dennis Cooper, breakoutnovelist Blake Butler delivers a wildly inventive, impressionistic novel offamily, sickness, and the wrenching birth of art. Evocative of Mark Z.Danielewski’s House of Leaves and the films of David Lynch, There Is No Yearoffers a fractured, dystopian parable about the struggle and survival ofart, identity, and family. As the Toronto Globe and Mail says, “if thedistortion and feedback of Butler’s intense riffing is too loud, you mayvery well be too boring.”
