"The nineteen stories in this collection redefine the everyday rituals of the nineteen eighties from a structuralist perspective. Meaning is defined by the accumulation of details; universality, if it exists, is the sum of all the individual parts. The emphasis throughout is on language in all its intricacies. Like the works of Robbe-Grillet and Donald Barthelme, this is a book to be read and enjoyed on many levels."
