Justin "Web Site' Paszul Marienbad My Love Oh my. A 12.6 million word novel (ten times longer than Proust!). Sounds pretty great (there’s also time travel and alternate Nazi histories and insect aliens and a 4.4-million-letter word that means “god within” and who the hell knows what else): Exiled on a deserted island, a Christ-haunted journalist-turned-filmmaker attempts to persuade a married woman from his past to help him produce a science fiction-themed pastiche to the 1960s French New Wave classic, Last Year at Marienbad. Through this act of artistic creation, he expects to carry out the will of God by prophesizing the death of time and the birth of a new religion. If only he can make the woman remember him. |
