More About This Book

Overview

A lonely demon in a remote corner of Hell oversees a divine but rigged type contest. A sentient house in San Francisco decides to become vacant once again... by any means necessary. A supernatural first date in Hong Kong goes hysterically, horribly awry. How did this become my life? And... now what? These questions recur throughout The Infernal Republic as a cast of characters you'd either love or run from confront the unlikely and surmount the impossible. The Infernal Republic is the new collection of short fiction from Marshall Moore, the author of The Concrete Sky, Black Shapes in a Darkened Room, and An Ideal for Living. Comprising stories published between
2003 and 2009, as well as several unique to this book, The Infernal Republic is Moore at his best:
surreal, hilarious, wise, brutal, and sometimes just plain wrong.

    not for me

    I read The Infernal Republic and am now faced with a dilemma: just because I didn't like the book does that make it a 'bad' book worthy of a negative review?

    Honestly, the writing shows intelligence and imagination; the editing is impeccable; certainly the situations and stories are, as the blurb says, surreal and brutal. But this was just not my cup of tea. That's not to say it wouldn't be yours.

    Many of the stories head into the realm of sci fi. No matter how good a book is purported to be, if it is sci fi, I likely won't enjoy it. That's just the way I'm made. Also the term 'brutal' is a perfect description of what I experienced with this collection. The language, violence and sex were very explicit. Not in every story but in most. It was actually more than my poor sensitivities could bear.

    There was one short (very short) piece that I thought was OK - "Everything Has Been Arranged (or, chamomile tea at ten thousand feet)" which describes a futuristic approach to moving houses. It is two pages long and quite cute.

    Again: great writing style, great editing, good flow within the stories - just not for me.
