By Jennifer Egan

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. A Visit From The Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan is about music, survival and the desire to escape the progress of time. 

What Tommy Orange Says: “Another experimentally structured novel, Egan’s work was instrumental in my formation as a fiction writer. Her work is so funny and clever and profound. Before I was a writer, I went to school for sound engineering, and this book digs into the lives of musicians and music industry people.” 

What They Say: “Told with both affection and intensity, Goon Squad stands as a brilliant, all-absorbing novel.” – Alan Cheuse 

Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones, and Barnes & Noble
