A simulatcrum. But Leo is not fooled, and he knows better than to trust his senses in matters of the heart. Certain that the real Rema is alive and in hiding, he embarks on a quixotic journey to reclaim her. With the help of his psychiatric patient Harvey–who believes himself to be a secret agent able to conrtol the weather–his investigation leads him from the streets of New York City to the southernmost reaches of Patagonia, in search of the woman he loves. Atmospheric Disturbances is a “witty, tender, and conceptually dazzling” (Booklist) novel about the mysterious nature of human relationships.
