Book Description

October 1, 1983
Punk-rock SF! Nuclear terrorists, a political kidnapping, and a giant woman from the fourth dimension. Say goodbye to the old world. This literary tour de force explores the landscape of the higher dimensions with the humor and vigor of an underground cartoon. At the same time, it manages to be a heartfelt and realistic depiction of a contemporary marriage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rudy Rucker is a nut, April 21, 2010

This review is from: The Sex Sphere (Paperback)
Rudy Rucker's nuts. In a good way.

This early volume in his oeuvre helps us count the ways he's nuts.

First of all he starts from the great novel about a 2 dimensional world, Flatland, and moves to another dimension. This, being Rucker, introduces us to a new mutli-dimensional humorously and well intentioned but dangerous demented life form called Babs. Babs is the sex sphere of the title and she(?) is the story revolves around her capture in a physics lab to her freedom and the resulting chaos including terrorism, sex, nuclear weapons, sex, family relationships, sex, mathematics, physics and sex.

And it's not really an erotic book.

It probably helps to be a bit of a nerd to read this. You do have to have some comfort with multiple dimensions, but for the open minded it may not matter.

Fun for all.
