The underpinning of this book is not a theme or an idea but rather Lethem's pure, unleashed talent and a mind that can come up with ideas that will jolt even seasoned SF readers. 1894759 1996 The Wall of the Sky, the Wall of the Eye total:432|5:73|4:169|3:156|2:29|1:5| 432 1572 601 42 3 0 false false Sat Nov 28 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 28 00:58:09 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 28 00:58:09 -0800 2009
