New material in the paperback edition includes an introduction by Percival Everett, an afterword by Laird Hunt, and a lost chapter.
Hunt’s experimentation with the novel has made him a major influence for a young generation of novelists.
The narrator’s wry, self-deprecating humor make this nameless protagonist endearing. Featured in The Believer four years after its publication and named one of the Underappreciated in 2002 by the same publication, The Impossibly is considered one of those literary gems lost in the turmoil following the 9/11 attacks.
