Description

'We need more novels as innovative and exciting as this' Matt Thorne, New StatesmanBy turns hilarious and brilliant, Coming Soon!!! is the tale of two writers: an retiring novelist setting out to write his last work and a young writer of hypertext intent on toppling his master.

They race each other to write a novel about a floating opera and the heat of the rivalry, the writers navigate - and sometimes stumble over - the fault lines between print and electronic fiction, mentor and mentored, postmodernism and modernism.

Coming Soon!!! is an extraordinary addition to Barth's distinguished career, a series of books that has shaped contemporary literature. 'Virtuosic brilliance... a bravura novel' Observer'Infinitely clever' Time Out'Delightful' San Francisco Chronicle'A fitting capstone to a body of work that overtowers that of most other writers of his generation' Washington Post
