Summary: Better than expected
Comment: My first book of Delany was Babel 17, followed by Empire star, and I must say that I was dissappointed upon finishing them. So, I kinda picked this one with careful consideration, wanting to give Delany one more chance to astound me, and he did. Whatever lacked at those first two books, you'll find in this one. World that he built resembles our own in such scary details that you actually start to wonder would you be better of dead? Interwoven with ancinent myths of Oprheus and Euridice, or to say with quest for love long lost, which was a common theme in the elder days, this book will draw a tear into your eyes. Though rather short, it will seem that it lasted for ages. Why four stars? After all the praises that I have spoken I still cannot escape from that fact that conversation in the book is obviusly patterned, or to say, nobody speaks or has converation in that way....

Summary: 1 of Delany's best
Comment: Along with EMPIRE STAR, EINSTEIN INTERSECTION is Delany's best book. A flood of poetic images fills a funny, fast-paced story that may B a retelling of the myth of Theseus -- but U won't care. Delany's odd eye, great sense of humor & different look at things will B enuf. & parts of it R laff-out-loud funny. At 120 pages, U can read it in a couple hours. & if U like this, try EMPIRE STAR and really scramble yr brain....
