Reflex and Bone Structure

Softcover, pages. Clarence Major explores the complex interrelationships of four characters?Cora Hull, Canada Jackson, Dale, and the narrator?within an experimental narrative framework. Primarily set in New York City, the story unfolds in a non-linear, episodic manner that challenges readers' perceptions of reality and character development. The narrator, who reveals himself to be unreliable and conscious of his manipulative role, controls the narrative while frequently blurring the boundaries between his imagination and the characters' lives. Cora, at the center of the story, is depicted in various roles, including as an actress and a student of feminist theory, yet remains elusive and undefined, reflecting the transient nature of the characters' relationships.
