Reviews of books that do not exist
A Perfect Vacuum is a collection built around an invented literary form: reviews of nonexistent books. Its pieces use the conventions of book criticism to introduce imagined works, making the act of reviewing itself part of the fiction. The publisher description points to wit and to inventions that feel disarmingly familiar, suggesting a collection interested in how fictional books can echo recognizable ideas and forms. The result is a science-fiction collection with a self-reflexive premise, where the absent books become the occasion for examining what reviews—and the books they describe—can make readers imagine.
