The most must-read of all must-reads. -Marie Claire [An] uncanny, near sublime first novel. . . . A delight. -BBC First novels as rich and enchanting as Augustus Rose's The Readymade Thief don't come around too often, and when they do, they rarely combine secret societies, teenage runaways, and Marcel Duchamp. -Vanity Fair [A] viscerally and intellectually exciting novel . . . whose punning title indicates the layered complexity of this well-written text. -Wall Street Journal [A] coolly creepy debut. -People [A] strange and wonderful debut . . . wildly unpredictable, big-hearted, and always fascinating. - The Seattle Times A fast-paced, plot-driven novel with a resolute heroine and a lot of history . . .

The novel is a map of things-urban exploration, secret societies, the city of Philadelphia, Marcel Duchamp, very possibly the Home Alone movies-and if those things don't seem to fit together, well, that's the magic of the improbable book, and the transmutation of obsessions, by energy and intellect, into something wholly new: a novel that's unexpected, uncategorizable, unputdownable. -Robin Sloan, author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore The Readymade Thief is a brilliant, suspenseful, and cinematic novel with an unforgettable heroine and a big story about art, the nature of consciousness, and all points in between. Be prepared to lose yourself in it. -Edan Lepucki, author of California and Woman No. 17 I fell more than a little bit in love not just with Lee-the gutsy protagonist of Augustus Rose's gorgeous debut novel, The Readymade Thief -but with the book itself. It's a hypnotizing amalgamation of love story and mystery. I am in awe. -Hannah Pittard, author of Listen to Me In The Readymade Thief , Augustus Rose shows that he has one of the steadiest hands in fiction. How else to explain how effortlessly he complicates and expands the mystery at the heart of the novel, adding Marcel Duchamp, the Darknet, Urban Exploration, and a unified field theory along the way to such amaz ukryj opis
