Jonathan Lethems The Fortress of Solitude is a coming-of-age novel set in 1970s Brooklyn, tracing the friendship between Dylan Ebdus, a white boy raised by bohemian parents, and Mingus Rude, the son of a soul singer. As they navigate racial tension, urban decay, and personal identity, their bond is tested by the pressures of adolescence and the allure of a mysterious ring that grants invisibility. The story blends realism with subtle fantasy, exploring themes of gentrification, cultural belonging, and the painful complexity of growing up in a fractured America.
