Michael Tolkin is a soothsayer, an early reader of our psychological topography, and his new book, NK3 (Atlantic Monthly Press), is either the last great Hollywood novel or the first great book of Burning Man. In Tolkin's post-apocalyptic, nanobacterium-plagued near future, the HOLLYWOOD sign presides over a Los Angeles that struggles to carry on in a world where people's memories have been destroyed. Even as a ruin L.A. still has its magic. NK3 is a strangely terrifying if celebratory novel of remnants, fragments, the nag of one's inner voice, and dim reminders of the dissolve that has become America.
