novel, science fiction, postmodern, slipstream, cyberpunk, aliens, drugs, sex, perversion, homosexuality

2nd in a trilogy of science fiction novels: The Soft Machine, The Ticket That Exploded, and Nova Express. The Interstellar War of the Sexes.


"The Ticket that Exploded , his most experimental novel and the one in which he most developed the cut-up, fold-in technique, is also the nearest to pure science fiction." --John Calder (in The Independent , Monday 4 August 1997).


"More science-fictional perversity from the master." --Henry W.Targowski (in Mark/Space, 1995).

Highly recommended.
