Description
Middle C is a novel that defies easy categorisation, instead embracing a kaleidoscope of styles and forms to tell its story. Set against the backdrop of war and social upheaval, it follows the life of Joseph Skizzen as he navigates a complex web of identity and deception.
The narrative unfolds in multiple registers, mirroring the fragmented nature of human experience. Through a series of inventive variations, William Gass explores the tensions between outward appearance and inner reality, revealing a protagonist whose life is built on a foundation of forgery and concealment.
