Here is the f...A friend of mine reviewed the story. Here is the full text.<br /><br />In any short story, the balance is always between providing enough detail and character for us to care as readers what the happens to the protagonists and keeping the pace at a sufficiently engaging level to meet the definition of a short story. Death of Prime Number certainly achieves the goal of pace, its frenetic, tearing through a series of connected tableaus at a clip that can leave the reader gasping for breath but also grasping for the story. The pace is almost brutal and hard on the reader, it makes no apologies and if everything in the story was more seamlessly connected this might be a virtue, but the story struggles to live under the visceral drive of the author, a series of set pieces that just about hold together in their own scene but often fall apart as you move to the next scene or the one after, and the unrelenting effort to get the reader to the end means that there is no time to enjoy the sometimes clever ideas that are introduced and discarded as randomly as some of the bags mentioned.<br /><br />Too often the story feels like a film that was supposed to take 3 hours suddenly compressed into 1 when the director finds his aspirations exceed his budget and all without the benefit of editing.<br /><br />It’s a pity as there are some good ideas in the story, but too often little jarring moments pull the reader out, the most egregious being right at the beginning when the main character claims not be good at Maths and then spends the whole story dealing with numbers, yes numbers are not maths and mean different things, but it’s hard for someone without a deeper understanding of the relevant mathematical underpinnings to see the differences. The writer could argue that it is written for a more sophisticated audience, and that would be fine if then the writer at least managed to ensure that the construction of the story met that bar, with too many small idiosyncratic uses of language that sometimes just seem wrong, the roller coaster ride is spoiled by the reader worrying that a bolt just flew by and the whole thing is going to collapse.<br /><br />The reader is never sure whether discarded ideas are thrown away because they reflect some deeper concept of disposability and a metaphor for the whole conceit of the story, again was I just not smart enough to understand how someone has a crash but walks away unhurt or without apparent interaction with the other driver, or did the writer just not develop the idea through.<br /><br />We are just always left wondering and not in a good way.<br /><br />The pace is also rather monotone, everything happens at the same pace, when there is reflection and memory it happens at the same speed as the forward story, as readers we sometimes fall into a memory hole before we even see it is there and just as we think we might have found a quiet place to rest and reflect, you are yanked back into the light of day, kicking and screaming being told to forget what you saw, just wait until you see what is coming.<br /><br />So then we arrive at the end, is it worth the disconcerting and bewildering romp through a landscape of good ideas smashed under the treads of progression, probably not. By the end I just happy to have my kidneys intact and for oxygen, my eyes able to scan a page again and I’m left with the overwhelming feeling of maybe not being clever enough to understand, in fact a bit like the protagonist who isn’t very good at maths, but then finds they are using it all the time, I’m just a bit confused.<br />Irrationalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09712389085388401238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070260170962009390.post-7720264204576069052012-10-27T23:28:21.120+05:302012-10-27T23:28:21.120+05:30seriously genius!!! scary talent in writing!!! che...seriously genius!!! scary talent in writing!!! cheers!!! an inspirational thought process i would say...

I'm glad that your astute mind caught that. I had thought about it and deliberately left this detail out of the plot, leaving it up to the reader to think, imagine a second wife, leaving me with an opportunity to write a sequel! You will see details like that left out in most of my stories. It's a pleasure for me to intrigue and make people think & imagine.<br /><br />Thanks again.
