Airplane Novel: The 9/11 Novel
"I am a building, but I am more or less than a building. I was conceived during the 1938 World Fair exposition and born in New York City four decades later. I was raised in scaffolding. During my gestation, I grew until I saw people from the north, south, east, west; a compass of my makers in a high-rise nest of people. Later, I was the sum of destructions, as Picasso said, but I began as the sum of constructions.
Soon, the first terrorists - birds - flew into me. All of this I remember or know via the IBM1670 - at the time the best computer."In Airplane Novel, the South Tower tells its story from a truly inside-out perspective. Toth's novel functions as a form of narrative retribution, a revenge against conventional perspectives that must now be reconsidered and rescinded. Robert Moscaliuc, 9/11 Imagineria: Writing, Catastrophe, Memory, and the War on Terror Toth is a unique, gifted stylist whose prose is at times sharp, unpredictable, humorous, and always engaging.
There have been a lot of books about 9/11 but I promise you none like this. Midwest Book Review Is Paul A. Toth's new Airplane Novel the 9/11 novel? Perhaps. It certainly makes the short list. We've been seeking perspective, after all, and Toth delivers with a second tower omniscient narrator, the South Tower himself, who details his birth, life, and death from his singular, elevated vantage point.
