Tomorrow | Chris Beckett

2 posts | 1 read

A captivating and provocative novel that explores the importance of storytelling, as well as questioning how human beings understand our place within society, time and even space. From an Arthur C. Clarke award-winning author. The fascinating new novel from Chris Beckett, the Arthur C. Clarke award-winning author. 'Tomorrow I'm going to begin my novel...' A would-be author has taken time out from life in the city to live in a cabin by a river and write a novel. And not just any novel. A novel that will avoid all the pitfalls and limitations of other novels, a novel that will include everything. At first these new surroundings are so idyllic that it's hard to find the motivation to get started. And then, in all its brutality, the outside world intervenes... Ranging constantly backwards and forwards in time and space, Tomorrow becomes a restless search for meaning in a precarious and elusive world.

Tomorrow | Chris Beckett

so-so

I can't claim to have enjoyed this. It's dull in places, a little pretentious maybe, the nonlinear narrative gets old very quickly, and the plot ... is there a plot?! But the twist in the last line knocked me sideways. It's simple & kinda obvious really, but I really did NOT see it coming. And I'm left questioning, not so much the text, but MYSELF! Why DID I believe a certain thing to be true? What does it say about me? I'm honestly disturbed!

Ooh, this long-time NetGalley lurker sounds really intriguing! It's next on my list - I'm going to start after work.
