"The Brooke-Rose Omnibus" brings together four unexpected novels: "Out", a science-fiction vision of a world surviving catastrophe; "Such", in which a three-minute heart massage is developed into a poetic and funny narrative; "Between", a glittering experience of the multiplicity of language; and "Thru", a novel in which text and typography assume a life of their own. Linking them all is wit, inventiveness and the sharply focused intelligence of Christine Brooke-Rose, a great European humanist writer.
