Supernatural Minnesota series by Thomas M. Disch (Books 1-4)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3MB
Overview: Poet and cynic, Thomas M. Disch brought to the sf of the New Wave a camp sensibility and a sardonicism that too much sf had lacked. His sf novels include Camp Concentration, with its colony of prisoners mutated into super-intelligence by the bacteria that will in due course kill them horribly, and On Wings of Song, in which many of the brightest and best have left their bodies for what may be genuine, or entirely illusory, astral flight and his hero has to survive until his lover comes back to him; both are stunningly original books and both are among sf’s more accomplishedly bitter-sweet works.In recent years, Disch had turned to ironically moralized horror novels like The Businessman, The MD, The Priest and The Sub in which the nightmare of American suburbia is satirized through the terrible things that happen when the magical gives people the chance to do what they really really want. Perhaps Thomas M. Disch’s best known work, though, is The Brave Little Toaster, a reworking of the Brothers Grimm’s “Town Musicians of Bremen” featuring wornout domestic appliances.
