Rating:  Summary: A masterful literary descent into a seductive future hell. Review: A superbly written, vastly entertaining and hypnotic voyage into an all-too-plausible future where narcotic sex is our only touch with nature. Bornefeld's use of timeless myth, tough prose, and cutting irony produces a literate and spellbinding page-turner that warns of a raunchy yet joyless tomorrow--which resembles too much our own present. An important and supremely inventive novel--from a gifted and deliciously off-beat writer--that will please and provoke.
Rating:  Summary: Time and Light: The Anti-book Review: First, I want to explain the rating I gave to Time and Light. I answered 5 simply because I can't decide if I like the book or not. To elaborate, Time and Light is the anti-book. There are no characters in the novel which I, at anytime, found myself liking. So, while I found it hard to put the book down, I found it equally hard to enjoy as well. I found the plot to be fairly predictable. It was easy enough to anticipate the events. Not that I really cared about the events, simply because I found all the characters despicable. Time and Light is by far the strangest book I have ever read. It violates one of the cardinal rules of books: Have characters the readers identify with
Rating:  Summary: Pointless Review: While I found this book to be technically well written, the story is pointless. As I was reading the last page, I kept thinking, "so what?!" On the plus side, it's a quick read and the descriptions of the photographs are interesting.
