Cretan Teat
Aldiss, Brian W
The Cretan Teat is a wry
and comic novel that interweaves its own fiction with an inner fiction
about the discovery of a Byzantine painting of the Mother of the Blessed
Virgin Mary suckling the infant Jesus and a fake ikon that becomes an
instrument of Nemesis. Told in the first person, from the perspective of
a randy but unfortunate author who becomes a character in his own
novel, this clever novel, which smacks of both Pirandello and
post-modernism, walks a tightrope between hilarity and tragedy as it
delivers on familiar Aldiss themes, as muff-diving and nose-diving to
disaster alternate to powerful effect.
