Paul Dembina’s Reviews > The Christine Brooke-Rose Omnibus: Out, Such, Between, Thru > Status Update

That's the end of Between - my favourite so far

I've found Such a much tougher proposition than Out.

A tale of a man brought back to life after apparently dieing Brook-Rose brings in much scientific terminology, mostly related to astrophysics.

The 1st of these novels (Out) has a setup that's ostensibly science fiction. There's been some sort of devastating sickness which has disproportionately affected Caucasian people, resulting in a switch to non-white folks now holding the reigns of power.

Actually the novel is more interesting than that description implies. It seems very much in the vein of the Nouvelle Roman where alienation is the catchword.
