Brittle Innings av Michael Bishop
https://speculiction.blogspot.com/2024/01/review-of-brittle-innings-by-michael.h...
BESTIALITY was definitely not what I expected when I picked up my first SF Masterworks book. Frankly, it is very light, science-fiction and might altogether belong in another genre. Either way, the book is extremely well written and interesting, especially the taboo romance.
This book was written in the 80s and there are points where it definitely dates itself, but it is still a great read and offers some nice insight into how the US was like at the onslaught of the AIDS epidemic. Bishop tells the story of how AIDS impacted one group of people, drawing some interesting parallels between AIDS and a mysterious disease killing the unicorns living on the ranch.
I gave it three stars, thought about two. Some real creepy and disturbing parts, but then the middle bogs down (it could have been 50 pages shorter). Then the ending. What can I say? Pointless and silly supernatural effects and people acting like people never would in a real situation. Stevie finally deals with her demon (Why didn't she do it sooner?) and is suddenly okay with all the weirdness that continues in her life.
Bishop tried to do a Philip K. Dick thing with what is reality?, what is dreaming?, what is imagination?, but it was just too obvious too early that this is what was going on. The first time it was really disturbing but then you realize what is going on and say to yourself: "ah, this part isn't really happening." Even the crossover where reality became weirder than imagination or dreaming was too obvious.
He also tried to do a Stephen King sort of thing where you take a seemingly very normal small town setting and make it go weird and wild. At this he probably succeeded but the idea isn't very original.
Now for the monkey, ah the monkey. A nice menacing and eerie effect at first just becomes tedious as you realize the capuchin is not really very threatening other than Stevie just wanting to get it out of her life. The blood sucking is pointlessly introduced and then never really used to build menace again.
The first half was pretty good but the ending just ruined it for me. It was like, "oh man, is that all it is."… (mer)
