In downtown Austin in the summer of 1998, a scrawny, pasty, unpopular teenager called Nathaniel Rothstein walks into Terry Tucker’s Boxing Gym. For weeks he comes back almost every day, working out obsessively, transforming himself. Then one night at the height of summer, he disappears. Nathaniel Rothstein is never seen again.
The Slip follows the extraordinary, unpredictable fallout of this mystery across twenty years – as Nathaniel’s disappearance saves some lives and ruins others. The Slip is a majestic, far-reaching novel of the immortal American dream, drawing together a dizzying cast of characters and grappling with all the ways, good and bad, chosen and forced, that a person can slip out of their own story – and into someone else’s.
