Summary: READER: WORKMAN IS COMPLETELY BONKERS IN THIS BOOK
Comment: In Relative Chill, warnings to the reader appear periodically, suggesting the reader may wish to skip ahead due to the next section's incoherence. Just such a warning should appear on the jacket of this, er, "novel." With a barely discernible plot (I could only tell what the plot was supposed to be from the description on the back of the book) and with characters so underdeveloped as to inspire no curiosity in the reader, this book is a waste of time. The pretentious allusions littered throughout the book are badly handled, contributing no meaningful texture to the novel, serving only to further cloud an already murky coherence. Experimental writing, at its best, challenges a reader. Experimental writing, at its worst, as in this novel, proves to be a masturbatory effort worth no one's time except, perhaps, the author's. While a sentence here and there shows the author's promising writing abilities, all the sentences in between prove that this author should edit his own material with a more discerning eye.
