How does one review Nick Mamatas’ Sensation? This slim novel, published by PM Press (“We seek to create radical and stimulating fiction and nonfiction books”) is a novel one must come at sideways, in fragments of critical observations, rather than directly, it seems to me. It is confounding, irritating and at times sublime.
In its capsule summary, Sensation is about a woman, Julia, who is stung by a wasp and becomes the leader of a sort of radical political movement; and about her husband, Raymond, who is trying to find her; and about the race of intelligent spiders who secretly control much of human history. Which doesn’t really do the novel much justice.
Read the rest of Lavie Tidhar’s great review.

I thought the Voices Carry mirror effect was weird and creepy and sad, in and of itself, and they should have just rolled with it. But no, they had to make a faux “intro” w/ Jon Hamm, a stupid and spineless wink. Oh well.
