The acclaimed author of "The Fortress of Solitude" turns a keen, affectionate eye on the paradoxes of love and art. Los Angeleno Lucinda Hoekke is surprised to find love in the course of her job fielding cranky anonymous phone-callers. But the inspirational romance that blossoms for her causes no end of trouble for the alternative band with whom she plays bass. A comedy of plagiarism, usurpation and sex, with delicious echoes of "Emma" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream", this is another exhibition of Jonathan Lethem's prodigious talent.
