DIVDIVA washed-up novelist navigates the dreamscape of a cataclysm-ravaged Los Angeles /divDIV
In the apocalyptic Los Angeles of Amnesiascope, time zones multiply freely, spectral figures roam the streets, and rings of fire separate the city from the rest of the country. The narrator, a former novelist, lives in a hotel and writes film criticism for a newspaper whose offices are located in a bombed-out theater. Viv, his girlfriend, is a sexually voracious artist, and together the two are collaborating on an avant-garde pornographic film. But in this world, whatтАЩs real and whatтАЩs merely the conjuring of the protagonistтАЩs imaginationтАФobsessed with dreams, movies, sex, and remembranceтАФis far from clear. At once outrageous and hypnotically lyrical, Amnesiascope enflames the readerтАЩs memory.
