Marooned in a small Midwest town shortly after his divorce, Jim Fog succumbs to purposelessness and nostalgia while his ex, Sarah Car, has moved to New York City with the ambition of skipping over any mourning for their marriage. An old friend, ignorant himself of his action's consequences, enables the two protagonists to move through and haunt each other's lives. Eventually, the momentum of Fog and Car's alternating narratives push the two characters out of their static life-cages towards different unreal conclusions, and the narrative's shifting styles finally find a stunning equilibrium in a troubled and subversive escapism. Praise for Fog and Car: "In Fog and Car, Eugene Lim renders the uncanny convergences of the lives of partners and strangers in a language entirely new. This is a deep, engulfing novel of breathtaking, even spooking precisionan altogether heady and heart-shaking debut." Gary Lutz "In this astonishing, assured first novel Eugene Lim intertwines elegant poetics with a fantastic plot, rife with love, mystery, malaise, and the supernatural. His gift for ingenious, startling permutations of language and plot make for a memorable, mesmerizing read. It was hard for me to put Fog and Car down; harder for me to stop thinking about." Lynn Crawford "The events of this novel take place in a space contrary to action, illuminating the silences of the page and the nothing that haunts the borders of "doing something." A beautifully paced and thoughtful work." Renee Gladman "In Fog and Car Eugene Lim scalpels deep into the loneliness of coupledom, into divorce, into obsession and stalking, into casual hookups, into homoerotic shocks. The book slowly heats its duos until they come to arolling boil, blistering out surprises and unexpected complexities. Mr. Lim is definitely a writer to watch." Steve Katz
