Manhattan Transfer by John Dos Passos
Manhattan Transfer is novel that follows several individuals and their overlapping stories in New York City from the Gilded Age to the Jazz Age. The narrative jumps from one vignette to the next with little warning, adding to the impression of a Manhattan teeming with energy and restlessness. The book attacks the consumerism, mercilessness, and social indifference of contemporary urban life. (Summary by TriciaG, with help from Wikipedia)
