Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Dublin, some years from now, and the President of the United States has just been assassinated during a state dinner in his honour. The official account has already taken hold but a hawk-eyed octogenarian named Monk, believing that there's nothing that cannot be known, has a version of his own -- a dark and twisted tale of both the watcher and the watched.Nothing gets past a man as invisible as me, he says, introducing us to a cast of damaged characters he has kept under the strictest surveillance for years. Chief among them is Schroeder, recently sacked from Trinity College, where he once taught the Presidential daughter, and is now wandering the city streets in a medicated fugue as sinister and violent events begin to take control of his life. But this, says Monk, is no thriller or invented tale of suspense. It is, he insists, an honest and faithful record of breakage and distress at a time when dysfunction -- personal, local, national, global and even cosmic -- pervades all. A time when everything is already broken and when, in many ways, the shooting of a pill-popping President is neither here nor there. The only thing that matters, Monk tells us, is the truth.And this is why, stationed high in his attic room with a Stoli in a highball, he does what he does. There's divinity in it, he says. And a modicum of love. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The anonymous narrator in Alf MacLochlainn's Out of Focus has more than blurred vision when he looks at the world around him as he recuperates from his many minor accidents. His visual perception or skewed perspective is a working out of the author's theory taken from William Molyneux's statement in 1692 "that an object may be seen in two places yet not seen double." / Whether he is on his bed looking through the crystal of his watch, or in a hospital bathtub peering into the overflow opening, or sitting on a chaise lounge with an empty barrel of a ballpoint pen or ring from a beer can to his eye, or back in his bed looking through a gauze bandage, this very accident-prone hero/victim manages to see inside what appears to be real-life scenes going on outside. / And when he is not playing the voyeur, his mind runs on zany inventions (natural/non-natural bust supports and shot-proof crystal eye protectors, for example) and pseudo-pedantic discussions about optics, clocks and cycling designs. / Although everything about this novel is original--plot, style, illustrations--it tips its hat in passing to some of those who have gone before: Beckett's Malone Dies and Molloy, and the narrators of At Swim-Two-Birds and Cadenza.

For nearly 20 years, the Review of Contemporary Fiction has celebrated and promoted the study of innovative fiction by featuring some of the most influential authors of the twentieth century.Recently the Review changed its format, and instead of several essays on the work of one or two authors the Review now features three or four authors with one long essay apiece devoted to the discussion of their writing careers.Still providing both an introduction to experimental fiction writers and interpretive strategies for reading their work, this new format allows for the inclusion of younger writers and those whose work has not been widely studied.Occasionally, the Review will feature special issues devoted to new fiction from around the world or to essays and fiction by important novelists and critics.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This issue publishes short stories by Catalan's most exciting contemporary writers, providing readers a unique opportunity to view both the life and art of Catalonian culture. The Review of Contemporary Fiction is a tri-quarterly journal that features critical essays on fiction writers whose work resists convention and easy categorization. The Review's aesthetic focus has been called many things--postmodern, experimental, avant-garde, metafictional, subversive--but in bringing this aesthetic to a wider audience it also seeks to expose the artificial barriers that exist between and within cultures. To this end, the Review has a special affinity for the works of foreign writers who may otherwise go unread in the United States, as well as American writers whose work has gone unchampioned in their own country. An extensive book review section also covers recent works of innovative writing. Above all, the Review of Contemporary Fiction attempts to expand readers' notions of what fiction is and what it can do. In 2008, the Review will continue to offer new issues dedicated to twentieth-century fiction from countries around the world. In the spirit of our Fall 2007 Australian Fiction issue, the Spring 2008 issue will feature stories and essays from Catalonia, edited by Catalan scholar Jaume Subirana Ortin and with an introduction by Mary Ann Newman, Director of the Catalan Center at Nyu. Our hope is that by focusing on very contemporary work from these regions, the Review of Contemporary Fiction will provide readers a unique opportunity to view both the life and art that is happening right now around the world.
