Cosmos is an inventive, antic picaresque with a satirical eye trained on spiritual & aesthetic hucksterism. Binder sets them up & knocks them down in this witty, energetic novel. Long live Blanche the dog!” — Sam Lipsyte, author of The Ask

“Binder is our American Murakami. He takes tragic themes & makes them hilarious but also mind-blowing, cosmos erupting. Binder’s enormous delight in language & life is irresistible.” — Clancy Martin, author of How to Sell

“In the world of Cosmos, art is a vain posture, enlightenment is an elaborate con, & delusion is a way of life. Binder’s ingenious satire captures the absurdities of our fraught moment with a startling mix of laugh-out-loud hilarity & subtle melancholy. It’s a novel you won’t shake anytime soon.” — Jeff Jackson, author of Destroy All Monsters

°°° 

PURE COSMOS CLUB is a biting art-world satire in which Binder - whose work Seth Meyers has compared with Kurt Vonnegut & Aldous Huxley - takes surreal aim at the poses & pretensions of high art & high fashion. 

With ruthless wit, Binder chronicles the struggles of Paul, an eccentric, artist & his companion dog, a disabled, quiche-obsessed terrier-mix named Blanche. Together they negotiate hilarious scenes of bad parties, insane couture, unstable friends, shady deals, weird sex, sabotage, & inscrutable art. 

But, there may be a way out when Paul is introduced to James, a New Age guru & leader of a secretive cult: the Pure Cosmos Club. Yet, every time Paul believes he's ready for the "Ultimate Level," James raises the price of entry. Just how far will Paul go for love, for great art, & to attain cosmic oneness?

°°° 

“My life in NYC had itself become an absurdist comedy. I was dating a super model-cum-Harvard grad. A friend was touring the country with Oprah, leading mass meditations to arenas full of acolytes while secretly hating himself because he had yet to build a billion-dollar company.”
