book reading: Samantha Hunt

From the author of the acclaimed debut novel The Seas, The Invention of Everything Else (Houghton Mifflin) luminously resurrects one of the greatest scientists of all time, Nikola Tesla, while magically transporting us — à la Steven Millhauser and Michael Chabon — to an early 20th-century New York City thrumming with energy, wonder, and possibility. "There's much food for thought here and some very beautiful prose," observes Kirkus Reviews.
