A Postmodern Masterpiece!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bernard Foy's Third Castling (Hardcover)
Consisting of three separate but interwoven stories, Bernard Foy's Third Castling is a fascinating and complex work that questions traditional definitions of art--the novel is subtitled in the Table of Contents as "A Detective Story and Reconstruction of Les fleurs du mal by Charles Baudelaire." Each story contradicts the others, forcing the reader to question: Who is Bernard Foy? Who is telling the story? And why do we, as readers, believe him? Not easily digested, but certainly worth while, the novel is both entertaining and thought-provoking, forcing a reconsideration of traditional systems of knowing and understanding the world.
