Galvanized by Schreber, this book maps the next stage: the New in the Never. Science fiction explored the effects of the New in the Next, the Near and, in some cases, the Now. Wilson riffs on and satirizes post-everything, signaling the inevitable death of the reader and rebirth of the real. Schreber is part speculative (anti)fiction, part (auto)biography, part theatre-of-the-absurd, part writing tutorial, part literary nonsense and criticism.
