The Recognitions by William Gaddis
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 1 GB
Overview: Wyatt Gwyon’s desire to forge is not driven by larceny but from love. Exactingly faithful to the spirit and letter of the Flemish masters, he produces uncannily accurate “originals” – pictures the painters themselves might have envied. In an age of counterfeit emotion and taste, the real and fake have become indistinguishable; yet Gwyon’s forgeries reflect a truth that others cannot touch – cannot even recognize.
Contemporary life collapses the distinction between the “real” and the “virtual” worlds, and Gaddis’ novel pre-empts our common obsessions by almost half a century. This novel tackles the blurring of perceptual boundaries. The Matrix and Blade Runner pale in comparison to this epic novel.
