GUN is weird, a sci-fi P.I. type of thing, surreal, and just great. Lethem is doing great work when it comes to breaking through the walls of genre and forcing us to reevaluate our expectations. Motherless B. was an example of that concerning hardboiled language. GUN is doing different work but it's a great read. Unique take on Marlowe and his clones.
