Swerve
a novel of divergence
by Rowland Saifi, Vincent James & McCormick Templeman
- First published:
- 21st century
- Language: English
- Content type: Fiction
Swerve is a dreamscape detective novel caught up in a multiversal calamity. Swerve jostles and hums. Swerve might be Galileo's cousin, Margaret Cavendish's niece, and Stephen Hawking's step-child. Swerve is a once in a generation book that tells the story of three distinct detectives who move across the United Sates and beyond, uncovering pieces of a mercurial puzzle spanning space and time. As each section unfolds and is interpreted through the others, the detectives' stories begin to collapse, rewrite, and ultimately, illuminate each other. Taking on a set of constraints (involving dice, reference authors, and geographic points) reminiscent of an OULIPO novel, Swerve invites readers to participate in the investigation alongside the characters, gathering clues, assembling narrative, and piecing together resonances. Come join the mystery--Swerve will not disappoint — -Back of book
