George Miles - Period (2000) - Simon - 03-15-2026
The culmination of Cooper’s explorations into sex and death, youth culture, and the search for the ineffable object of desire, Period is a mesmerizing final statement to the five-book cycle it completes. Cooper has taken his familiar themes – strangely irresistible and interchangeable young men, passion that crosses into murder, the lure of drugs, the culpability of authorship, and the inexact, haunting communication of feeling – and melded them into a novel of flawless form and immense power. Set in a spare, smoke-and-mirror-filled world of secret Web sites, Goth bands, Satanism, pornography, and outsider art, Period is a literary disappearing act as mysterious as it is logical. Obsessive, beautiful, and darkly comic, Period is a crowning achievement from one of America’s finest writers.
