Inquisitory

"M. Pinget brings out all my insular prejudice against Continentals who have never heard of common sense and, on taking up a theory or chasing a technique, ride the damned thing so hard that it has dropped dead before it is halfway round the course....Faced with this sort of novel, one is obliged to ask:...Does it show us aspects of life that would be concealed if the writing were more orthodox?....M. Pinget's novel is only a deliberate struggle--maintained with incredible stamina--to ride a one-wheeled bicycle for 399 miles. It is hardly surprising, then, that the total effect is immensely involved, generally unreadable, and appallingly boring."Pinget, Robert is the author of 'Inquisitory' with ISBN 9781564783271 and ISBN 1564783278.
