Innocents and Others
By Dana Spiotta
288 pages;
Scribner
Narrators we assume are being straight with us but aren't; relationships that may or may not have happened; protagonists with encyclopedic knowledge of films; art as deceit, art as truth. Simply? Confirmation that Spiotta is among America's most intriguing novelists.
