Weird fiction, cat noises, and a Sacriphyx poster? Now this is the channel for me! I came here from the difficult literature video and have really enjoyed listening to your thoughts so far. I haven't read the novels you mentioned here, but I'll have to keep an eye out for some of them!
Great video! I've read neither An Evil Guest nor There Is No Antimemetics Division, but I have read Wish I Was Here, which was massively helpful in contextualizing your critique, and made me think I'd thought something similar before - which must mean something, I'm sure :) Thanks!
Thank you for watching! I'm sure if you enjoyed Wish I Were Here you might find something to appreciate in An Evil Guest. I think Wolfe is quickly becoming one of my favourite writers of weird genre fiction as I dive into his works outside The Book of the New Sun.
@@HabitualBlood I struck out spectacularly with Shadow of the Torturer a couple of years back, but should the spirit move me thither, I'll give it a whirl :)

Glad to have another Sacriphyx fan watching! Now if only they'd release a new album...

you really popped off here‼️ I would love to read those books if I were literate
It's such a pity you can't read...maybe one day, though.
Speculative fiction.
To paraphrase Gerald Murnane, I would have thought all fiction speculative.
Man I wish Australians were real.
It really is a shame that this is the best AI approximation of how an Australian might look and talk.
