Recenzii
Brilliant in its playful inventiveness
A quirky, unsettling work from one of the most original writers of speculative fiction in Britain today
Whiteley's trademark subtle surrealism shines
A melancholy and compellingly weird tale of identity in crisis
Whiteley takes the reader on a cryptic journey of trust, identity and knowing your place in the world
One of the books of the year. Superb, on every level
A unique work of literary and speculative excellence
Exceptionally clever, deep and multi-layered story(ies), leaving a lot of matter to think about. Reminds me of some of Gene Wolfe's stuff in the best way
A brain-charging voyage through the present and the future, a novel that shepherds the reader out and then brings her back in, changing her in the process. It's like Kafka rewrote Pale Fire as a science-fictional novel. A Pilgrim's Progress through a godless world where the pilgrim is Patrick McGoohan's 'Prisoner.' A dream of a book, in several senses: enigmatic, marvellous, utterly original. Whiteley really is one of the most striking and brilliant writers working today
Masterfully written and rich with meaning, Three Eight One confirms Aliya Whiteley as one of our most ingenious - and important - storytellers. Travelling the Horned Road is a wild and unique experience: funny and thoughtful, frightening and joyful. I already want to go back
Like watching a magic trick happen... I'm going to be thinking about Three Eight One for a long time
Three Eight One celebrates the art of storytelling with every clever twist and turn in this exquisitely crafted, beautifully realized voyage of discovery
Slippery and whip-smart, this is a novel profoundly perceptive of the human condition. It has a disorienting ebb and flow - elegantly elusive and dream-like at times, while also being finely-tuned and precise. A mediation, perhaps, on the fallacies of history, and the futility of searching for meaning
Whiteley's self-deconstructing quest narrative is a puzzle box full of delights, perils and strange wonders. Haunting
An extraordinary offering from one of the UK's greatest living writers of speculative fiction - blurring genres and playing with form to produce a gripping, exciting, poetic adventure
A hero's journey stripped back to its essence, remixed with spaceships and conspiracies, masquerade and menace. Is it an allegory pretending to be an adventure story? An adventure masquerading as a secret history of the world? A new kind of wisdom literature for the digital age? Whatever it is I loved every second of it. Truly Aliya Whiteley is one of the most original and interesting writers in the field
There's nothing like a new Aliya Whiteley novel, and no Aliya Whiteley novel is like any other. Three Eight One may be her most enigmatic work to date, a parable of maturation and the milestones of life that is at once mythical and down-to-earth. I adored every moment of it, and I found it overwhelming in its scope, honesty and emotional impact. It's certainly one of the best novels I've read this year
