"Opening a book that has mysteriously appeared amid the clutter of his desk, the narrator finds himself exhorted not to read further, to throw the book away! Instead (but of course) he tries different strategies for approaching the book, none of which work.
The narrator's tempestuous, increasingly obsessive relationship with the book he is determined to read, interwoven with the story of a real (but no less enigmatic) love affair, is, in its own challenging way, a meditation upon reading and writing, and their inevitable discontents. Dump This Book offers a new angle on the work of this writer and an ironic perspective on the power of reading to produce meaning."--BOOK JACKET.
