This book explores the ways in which Nabokov and Pynchon manipulate fictional strategies to de-familiarize our perceptions of everyday objects and people. Estranging everyday perceptions allows us to more intensely examine critical issues of morality and identity that have become exhausted with over-examination to the point of cliché.
