Go When You See the Green Man Walking

First published in 1970 this collection of eleven stories showcases Brooke-Roses innovative credentials at their zenith. The Foot and the The Religious Button deploy to stunning effect her unique evolution of the run-on first person camera-eye narrative style as pioneered by Robbe-Grillet in the nouveau roman movement; Small Loser and Medium Winner is a multilingual mix of allusions and discourses in the style of her 1968 novel Between; while Troglodyte and The Chinese Bedspread offer a more straightforward comic and realist approach. Go When You See the Green Man Walking is a dark challenging often science-fictional frequently droll and sublimely erudite selection of stories from one of the unsung heroes of exploratory fiction.
