As Mark Z. Danielewski's first novel is so weird, I had no doubt that his second novel would also be strange and original. Only Revolutions follows the story of two teenagers who are forever young through their exploits throughout time.
The plot doesn't seem so weird, but the presentation is very odd. Though the book is called a novel, it is written more like a postmodern poem. The sentences remain incomplete and oddly ordered, similar to stream of consciousness, but unlike the stream of consciousness written by Joyce or the beat poets in Only Revolutions you feel as if you are reading the characters minds.
In Danielewski's strange presentation the book is written in two directions. When the book is flipped on way it is the story of Haily and when flipped the other it is the story of Sam. It is recommended that you read eight pages of one story then eight pages of the other story, though how you read these characters thoughts are up to you.
