Remainder
At first I thought, "somewhere between Ballard and Amis," but I gradually realized there wasn't much if any Amis influence after all -- none of the really dry, sardonic wit. I settled on mostly Ballard and a bit of Nicholson Baker, but not much. I'll have to think about this one a bit more, which is good, it'll stick with me, I suspect in much the same way Luke Rhinehart's "The Dice Man" has. Cautiously recommended.
