wow. I must say... I was simultaneously bored and interested by this collection. The first piece is rough. Unfortunately, it takes up the bulk of the book, spanning 120 pages or so. It is essentially nonsense cyberpunkish terminology somewhat in a repeating pattern. I found the second too dry to really stay interested. The third, "her love for me is oxyacetylene" by Simon Logan is in my opinion, the shining star of this collection. Not only is it the only piece of fiction to be easily accessible, it's the only work that I actually read with real interest. The fourth wasn't too bad and was fairly amusing at times but it could be extremely confusing to readers unfamiliar with the Faulkner-esque approach. (it really isn't anything like faulkner but it's the closest comparison i could make). The fifth was an essay utilizing popular philosophers, linguists and social theorists in an analysis on pixilated japanese pornography. It was amusing but again, if the reader was not familiar with the theories of Baudrillard,Zizek, Barthes, and Heideggar, then it might be a little confusing. The last piece I didn't bother to read, it may have been good, maybe not. At this point I stopped caring. If anything, read it for Simon Logan's short story, the rest wasn't as good in my opinion.
