...never buy taste, here is where it went after it failed, and here’s what it brought instead,” writes Lethem of Manhattan. The narrative flow, dictated almost entirely by Chase—save for a few exceedingly emotive letters penned by his spacey fiancée and a few events that occur on the periphery of his story—is dimpled with beautifully concise and vivid encapsulations of the utterly mundane and the extraordinary alike.The letters Janice writes to Chase, for example, as the length of her space stay drives her slowly zanier...
...engage their listening audience. The uninspiring “By Two’s” is the album’s requisite snoozer, James McNew’s sole vocal performance (“I’m on My Way”) is pleasant but forgettable, and spacey, grandiose opener “Here to Fall” sounds decidedly and eerily unlike them—distant, cold, and weirdly hollow.

Like Socrates or a rabbi or a shrink, Gerty annoyingly answers questions with questions. (Sam, agitated: "Am I a f---in' clone?" Gerty, trying to deflect the issue: "Are you hungry?") Unlike HAL-9000 from the Kubrick movie, however, this computer is not totally the slave of his programmers. Sometimes it will aid Sam as he rises from impotence...
