Kazuo Ishiguro, author of The Remains of the Day and winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize for LiteratureBrilliant . . . Darnielle is a master at building suspense, and his writing is propulsive and urgent; its nearly impossible to stop reading . . . [Universal Harvester is] beyond worthwhile; its a major work by an author who is quickly becoming one of the brightest stars in American fiction.Michael Schaub, Los Angeles TimesGrows in menace as the pages stack up . . . [But] more sensitive than one would expect from a more traditional tale of dread. Joe Hill, New York Times Book Review (Editors Choice)The most unsettling book Ive read since House of Leaves.Adam Morgan, Electric LiteratureIts the late 90s, and you can find Jeremy Heldt at the Video Hut in Nevada, Iowaa small town in the center of the state. The job is good enough for Jeremy, quiet and predictable, and it gets him out of the house, where he lives with his dad and where they both try to avoid missing Mom, who died six years ago in a carwreck. But when a local school teacher comes in to return her copy of Targetsan old movie, starring Boris Karloffthe transaction jolts Jeremy out of his routine. Theres something on it, she says as she leaves the store, though she doesnt elaborate. Two days later, another customer returns another tape, and registers the same odd complaint: Theres another movie on this tape.In Universal Harvester, the onceplacid Iowa fields and farmhouses become sinister, imbued with loss and instability and foreboding. As Jeremy and those around him are absorbed into tapes, they become part of another storyone that unfolds years into the past and years into the future, part of an impossible search for something someone once lost that they would do anything to regain.
