This is the story of Arno Strine, a modest temporary typist, who has perfected the knack of stopping time in its tracks and taking women’s clothes off. He is hard at work on his autobiography, The Fermata, which proves in the telling to be a very provocative, very funny and altogether morally confused piece of work. Hilarious and totally original, Nicholson Baker’s new novel is a triumphant comedy about sexual fantasy and fantastic sexuality.
