Overview

Matthew Remski's second novel, Silver, is an absurdist eulogy for the 20th century with a cast of thousands, including Leni Riefenstahl, Dorothy Stratten, J.P. Morgan, the Silver Surfer, Bob Barker, and the Dalai Lama, with cameos by a born-again - dead-again Jesus Christ. Half cartoon and half ritual, Silver asks: Does photography murder us? Is reality itself pornographic? Was Christ's tomb the first pinhole camera? How did television become the mental spin-cycle of North American society? Will Bob Barker lead his audience to spiritual enlightenment through Sanka-induced hallucinations? Why do we feel dead?
