Narrative To Books Dermaphoria

Bailed out of jail and holed up in a low-rent motel, amnesiac Eric Ashworth's only memory is a woman's name: Desiree. With steadily increasing doses of a strange new hallucinogen, Eric finds that the drug allows him to reassemble his past in broken fragments. But as he begins to lose touch with the present, his distinction between truth and fantasy begins to crumble, creating a world where divisions between love and loss, violence and tenderness, and fact and fiction are less discernible than they ought to be.

Criticism Epithetical Books Dermaphoria

Dermaphoria feels like a fevered, abstract nightmare. It is gritty, wholly paranoid, and inescapable. Author Craig Clevenger proves himself a master of prose. His words conjure an experience rather than a story, each returning memory of Ashworth overwhelming the senses like few books can. There is no putting it down.

Just finished reading this book about 20 minutes ago. I have read Craig Clevenger's first novel, "The Contortionist's Handbook" as well and enjoyed them both. I think that "Dermaphoria" was even better than "Contortionist's..." though, which is a good thing because as a writer, you always want to be improving.What I most enjoyed about this story were 1) the great sensitivity of the main character; 2) the brilliant & concise writing style and 3) Clevenger's mastery of metaphorical writing,

A cinematic, psychedelic, drug explosion left in words on a page. I'm not saying it worked entirely, because, for me (and it's ALWAYS subjective), it didn't. But throughout this tale of a hapless, hopeless narcotics manufacturer/chemistry genius with amnesia (wrap your brain 'round that) searching for his lost (in every possible way) love and memories, there's plenty of chunky language and lyrical prose to cling to. It does (for me) overcook and overdo it for a good number of pages, but there's



Im always astounded when an author pushes their art forward in some way whilst also writing a ripping yarn. Thats the holy grail, right? This is one of those.

If you want to be disorientated and smitten by good prose then you have to read this. I guess it's a crime novel but not in any formulaic way. I love the interior workings of the main characters mind when swamped by psychotropic drugs and amnesia (poor Eric) and the threat of the character Toe Tag. Think of this book as a pacy magic carpet ride that deals with the black underbelly of society and just go with it. Interesting style of writing that pulls you right under. This author is one I'll

If I'm still conscious to face the consequences of my actions, then at the very least I will know that my actions were real, they indeed had consequences, though my lone life will amount to less than a single click of static in the symphony of the big bang. If my actions were real, then so were my memories, and if those were real, the things I've done have allowed me to see God and I0m not afraid of following my life down that eight-second black rabbit hole.  A new street drug that has
