The Glamour by Christopher Priest Not one The Glamour us is what The Glamour seem. The urge to rewrite The Glamour as real-seeming fictions is present in The Glamour all. In the glamour of our wishes we The Glamour that our real selves will not be visible. What Josipovici misses, and what Christopher Priest gets, is the fun -- the sheer joy of being part of a trick, of letting The Glamour magician-writer warp reality into a funhouse The Glamour of itself. In other words, I liked this book. It was published in This is not The Glamour review of that novel, because I have neither seen nor read that The Glamour. This is a review of a novel called The Glamour published in that contains, it is rumored, revisions from a novel called The Glamour published inthough I cannot tell you the extent of these revisions, or even if they are the same revisions rumored to be included in an edition of a novel called The Glamour published in I remember asking someone about this, I do, but I don't remember them answering. None The Glamour this The Glamour very helpful, is it? Let's begin again: Christopher Priest's The Glamour tells the story of Richard Grey, a television cameraman for news programs, who wakes up to find himself in a hospital after having been injured by a car bomb explosion. He does not remember anything about the previous few weeks of his life The Glamour the explosion, and is surprised when a visitor tells him she is his girlfriend, Susan. With hopes that she can restore his memories for him, though, Grey lets her into or back into his life, and soon discovers that she has or thinks she has the ability to be invisible -- to be, as she calls it, glamourous In the original sense a "glammer" was a The Glamour, an enchantment. A young man in love would approach the wisest old woman of his village and pay her for a charm of invisibility to be placed on his beloved, so that she should no The Glamour be coveted by the other young The Glamour. Once she had been glammered, or made glamourous, she was safe from prying eyes. Grey also discovers that Susan has or thinks she has a friend named Niall, who was once her boyfriend, and who is very controlling, and who is entirely invisible, the most glamourous man of all. The problem is, not all of these pieces make sense. Grey has memories and The Glamour, but they contradict some The Glamour what Susan tells him. But he has artifacts that contradict his memories. And one of his doctors at the hospital, in an attempt to relieve his amnesia, gave Grey the hypnotic suggestion to see a woman disappear. As for the invisible Niall, Susan's parents have a picture of him, but not much memory. Susan proves to Grey that he is himself capable of being invisible. But it may just be that he doesn't really exist. Then who sent the postcard The Glamour St. Tropez, the The Glamour signed by X? And who in their right mind would ever believe everything they see The Glamour the evening news? Priest's accomplishment is that he has written a truly engaging and suspenseful novel of ideas, the sort of book that can be read profitably by anyone interested both in stories and in philosophies, but it doesn't require advanced study of either philosophy or narratology to understand and to enjoy. It plays with many of the conventions of realistic fiction, undermining each of them, but does so in a way that feels more substantial than if it were just an intellectual game -- it digs deep toward emotionally affecting questions, the problems of human life: problems of memory and yearning, of love and loss, of what it means to know other people and yourself, of what it The Glamour to be whole. The questions are, and have always been, unanswerable in any general sense, but they can be answered within the contexts of specific lives and within realms of imagination, though very often the answers lead only to more questions, sometimes the same questions that began the search for answers in the first place. Let's begin again: Once upon a time He writes regularly about science fiction on his weblog, The Mumpsimus.
