The Verificationist is a 2000 novel by American author Donald Antrim that follows a group of psychoanalysts who come together for a pancake supper. The New York Times called it, "A Freudian free-for-all," while George Saunders hailed it as "one of the most pleasure-giving, perverse, complicated, and addictive novels in the past 20 years".
