    Ken: The Idiot

    by Elif Batuman

    A portrait of the artist as a young woman. A novel about not just discovering but inventing oneself. With superlative emotional and intellectual sensitivity, mordant wit, and pitch-perfect style, Batuman dramatizes the uncertainty of life on the cusp of adulthood. The Idiot is a heroic yet self-effacing reckoning with the terror and joy of becoming a person in a world that is as intoxicating as it is disquieting.
