Book Reviews of Pseudo-City
Book Review: A Needed Break From Reality
Summary: 5 Stars
I've loved Wilson beginning with the Kafka Effekt, following him at a respectable distance ever since. I won't burble over that book here, but I suggest reading it, strongly suggest. This book (Pseudo-City), this clever accumulation of interrelated stories drifting in and out of absurdity and the bizarre along humorous and deftly satirical lines, is an outpost of the kind of writing we should all aspire to read from time to time. It makes you think a bit, entertains you all along, and the pay off is well worth the effort. If you like your reading off the beaten path (and who with a modicum of intellect doesn't?), I can guide you to no better a book than this. In its pages (I would have liked it a bit longer as I had become enamored of it early on) Wilson creates an entire world for your perusal, a world just a single dimensional step, yet one quantum evolution away from ours. But, oh the evolution. So much to recognize, and so much to find new. If you choose not to read this book, you are only depriving yourself.
