Customer Reviews
Must reading for every writer or wannabe--genre or literary
HEROVIT'S WORLD is the definition of daring fiction. It may be categorized as SF and genre, but make no mistake, this is literary fiction at its finest. An unfairly neglected masterpiece from a true master of the craft.
Many authors have attempted to put the reader inside the head of the fiction writer, but few have succeeded with greater skill or impact than Malzberg. Reading ceases to be a passive activity. Herovit's reality quickly becomes the reader's reality.
Bold. Brilliant. Incisive. Unforgettable. Must reading for any writer of fiction, genre or literary.
