A whip-smart, funny, and smart-ass novel wrapped up in a form-breaking package. Visual Editions, one of my favorite publishing houses, has finally done a book that's actually a STORY and they've managed to shatter your preconceptions of the novelistic form yet again. It's not going to be for everyone, oh no, but for those of you who are at least a bit politically minded and for those of you who like stylistic exuberance, check this thing out. It's well worth your time, I promise. Lots more about the book and the form and how awesome it all is at RB: http://wp.me/sGVzJ-kapow nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Unfolding, turning and spinning, Kapow! is a startling new book told through Thirlwell's uniquely acrobatic voice. Taking place in the thick of the Arab Spring, this timely and incisive tale of revolution offers a clever, funny and bitingly critical cultural commentary. Using a number of spinning digressions, Thirlwell tells the stories of a group of interconnected characters in London and Egypt, each transformed by the idea of revolution.

De op zich bijzondere typografische vormgeving, met uitklapbare pagina's en omgekeerde of diagonaal gedrukte alinea's, stelde me enigszins teleur (ik ben intussen ook wel de overdosis aan typografische spelletjes van Danielewskis The Familiar gewoon), maar waar de alinea's zelf niet veel meer zijn dan bijzinnen of bijgedachten (die evengoed tussen haakjes of gedachtenstrepen hadden kunnen staan), versterkt de handeling van het voortdurend draaien en keren van het boek wel de zoektocht naar de zin van 'revolutions'.
