Synopsis
Nicholson Baker's novel about phone sex, told mostly in dialogue, was made notorious by the Monica Lewinsky scandal. It features Abby and Jim, who talk endlessly on the phone coast-to-coast--about sex, of course, but also about life's trivia, Baker's greatest subject. As always, his real theme is language, and his greatest gift as a writer is his eccentric examination of it as part of a close observation of the human condition.

Publisher's Note
Baker has written a novel that remaps the territory of sex--solitary and telephonic, lyrical and profane, comfortable and dangerous. Written in the form of a phone conversation between two strangers, Vox is an erotic classic that places the author in the first rank of America's major writers. Reading tour.

Industry Reviews
"Deserves to be read with full attention to what surrounds and lies between the sexually explicit moments."
New York Review of Books - Robert Towers

"A brilliant, funny, perversely tender and technically breathtaking erotic novel."
Towers
