Negative Positive
Title: web of delights, skilfully spun
Review: Two men in jail: one a machismo revolutionary, the other an effeminate moviegoer (in jail for "homosexually corrupting" a minor). This odd and star-crossed pair form the centre of one hell of a heart-rending, suspenseful and thought-provoking novel. Certainly one of the most unconventional, in structure and content.The book becomes more challenging as one progresses, and by the end is transformed into a cliffhanger. (DON'T be like me and greedily jump to the end before you deserve it.) Love, honour, betrayal and shame walk the same tightrope -- who has betrayed whom? What can be sacrificed in the name of a cause, political or otherwise? I leave you to ponder the question.
