Marvin K. Mooney, the enigmatic philosopher, has gone missing. Vanished. But we're left with his work: rambling, encyclopedic, destructive texts that call into question Marvin's own identity. Who is Marvin K. Mooney? And what has Christopher Higgs done with him? Only you, as reader, can find out.The Complete Works of Marvin K. Mooney seems to me unprecedented via form, making new ways of both telling a story and relaying information, but also doing so in a way that is, as David Foster Wallace so expressly begged for: fun. -Blake Butler, at BookslutA playful, tender, intellectually challenging, and funny novel. -Josh Cook, at The Huffington PostThe Complete Works of Marvin K.
