The Candy House is a novel by Jennifer Egan, published by Scribner's with a U.S. release date of April 5, 2022.
Like that book, it consists of short, interrelated stories with recurring characters, set at different times.
For the most part, The Candy House takes place at a later time period and some of the stories include science-fiction themes.
The Candy House and Goon Squad are touchstone New York City and technology...novels of our time; they'll be printed in one volume someday, I suspect, by the Library of America.
[1]Kirkus Reviews said: As she did in Goon Squad's PowerPoint chapter, Egan doles out information in small bites that accumulate to demonstrate the novel's time-honored strengths: richly complicated characters and compelling narratives...[and the novel is a] thrilling, endlessly stimulating work that demands to be read and reread.
