1.0 out of 5 stars a disgrace to Abe, Mar 26 2000
By The Electric Walrus, KSC (the Anti-Bananashinigaminomiko Cabal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Face Of Another Pb (Paperback)
I've loved most of the Abe that I've read, but this one was terrible. The "philosophical musings" mentioned by one reviewer are complete BS. The main character constantly reads deep philosophical meaning into things that are very straightforward. Don't waste your money on this--read The Woman in the Dunes or Kangaroo Notebook instead.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Extraordinary Achievement, Oct 2 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Face Of Another Pb (Paperback)
Not one of the truly great novels, no doubt (and there are so few), but outstanding and amazing, nonetheless. Recommended, despite philosophical musings of a gratuitous density and complexity -- at times, quite beyond full comprehension.

4.0 out of 5 stars Slow-going at first but well worth it!, Jul 8 1999
This review is from: Face Of Another Pb (Paperback)
I initially found this novel hard to respect since the central theme of a man and his mask seemed trite and a cliche. However this setup does allow the novel's main character to seduce his wife, posing as a stranger; a strange social situation which was described with much empathy and insight by Abe.
