A Visit From the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan is a powerful story on the redeeming qualities of art and music. As Bennie Salazar, an aging former punk rocker and record executive, and Sasha, the passionate, troubled young woman he employs confront their pasts together, they soon discover how rebellion ages, influence corrupts, habits turn to addictions and lifelong friendships can fluctuate.
“Clever. Edgy. Groundbreaking ... Features characters about whom you come to care deeply as you watch them doing things they shouldn't, acting gloriously, infuriatingly human,” says Julia Keller of the Chicago Tribune.
Egan’s novel won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2011. Here are other winners from different categories on the list:
- Clybourne Park by Bruce Norris
- The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery by Eric Foner
- Washington: A Life by Ron Chernow
