About The Book

Gojiro is a triumph of storytelling that firmly established itself as one of the preeminent — and funniest — novels of the post-nuclear era.Its star, of course, is Gojiro — the giant lizard — made famous by a wildly successful cycle of B-movies and now come to exuberant literary life. Once a normal monitor lizard, he was transformed by an atomic test after World War II, gaining consciousness as well as five hundred feet and fifty tons. Meanwhile, in an Okinawa hospital, Komodo — the world-famous Coma Boy — reawakens for the first time since the Hiroshima blast nine years before. Together, the lizard and orphan venture forth to discover their identities in a world in which neither belongs. The story of their journey from Radioactive Island to the mansions of Hollywood and the deserts of New Mexico, Gojiro is geek love on a truly epic scale and a bible for the world that was born out of the Manhattan Project.
