editorial:–
This varied collection
of short prose, written on and off by John O’Loughlin
during the winter of 1980-81, starts in a relatively literary fashion
with the
account of a clandestine visit of a masseuse to a priest who can no
longer cope
with his celibacy, and ends in a profoundly futuristic manner with an
account
of evolutionary progress towards a definitive Beyond, as envisaged by a
radical
philosopher. In between, comes a fairly
balanced alternation between fictional and philosophical subjects ...
as we
follow the voyeuristic pleasures and musings of a man covertly watching
his
wife getting dressed from the twilight comfort of his early-morning
bed;
explore the evolutionary revelations of a de Chardinesque
gnostic in the face of atheistic unbelief;
witness
the existentialist horror of a Mondrianesque
ascetic
whose rural daytrip out of London with some friends proves to be more
unsettling than he had first bargained for; and go beyond conventional
concepts
of the Millennium, as of Millennialism, with a revolutionary thinker
who
believes that only when, in general terms, human brains become
artificially
supported and sustained to a transcendent end … will there be any
prospect of
heavenly salvation of a definitive order.
