Hardcover. Just how far is it from London to Gotham City? Or from Paul Auster to Pierre Menard for that matter? Some people may think these sorts of questions are idle and ultimately meaningless but this book is not for them. Three intertwined narratives play out as the stories of m, an isolated loner, DOWN, a depressed publisher, and David Bohm, a real-life quantum theoretician in post-war Sao Paulo, become entangled. The closer each of these trails leads to the dark centre of the world the more reality disintegrates. Dualities of certainty and doubt, hope and fear, and reason and nonsense drag each of the characters struggling into an absurd, labyrinthine world of seemingly infinite regress. Hardback literary novel with elements of speculative fiction. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

About this title

Synopsis

Just how far is it from London to Gotham City Or from Paul Auster to Pierre Menard for that matter Some people may think these sorts of questions are idle and ultimately meaningless but this book is not for them. Three intertwined narratives play out as the stories of , an isolated loner, DOWN, a depressed publisher, and David Bohm, a real-life quantum theoretician in post-war So Paulo, become entangled. The closer each of these trails leads to the dark centre of the world the more reality disintegrates. Dualities of certainty and doubt, hope and fear, and reason and nonsense drag each of the characters struggling into an absurd, labyrinthine world of seemingly infinite regress. Praise for Lochlan Bloom's writing: Vivid, taut and grimly effective work - Paul Ashton, BBC Writersroom Beautiful and eloquent.... very well structured and an extremely engaging read. Suspense and tension are built really well within the piece, and the sinister atmosphere evoked is powerful. - National Theatre Scotland
