Overview: Since the early 1970s, when she was in her mid-thirties, Emma Tennant has been a prolific novelist and has established herself as one of the leading British exponents of "new fiction." This does not mean that she is an imitator of either the French nouveaux romanciers or the American post-modernists, although her work reveals an indebtedness to the methods and preoccupations of some of the latter. Like them, she employs parody and rewriting, is interested in the fictiveness of fiction, appropriates some science-fiction conventions, and exploits the possibilities of generic dislocation and mutation, especially the blending of realism and fantasy. Yet, although parallels can be cited and influences suggested, her work is strongly individual, the product of an intensely personal, even idiosyncratic, attempt to create an original type of highly imaginative fiction.
Genre: Fantasy
Hotel de Dream
A postmodern romp with the inhabitants of Hotel de Dream … each with their secret longings and aspirations … and this is the stuff dreams are made of. The funny thing is when their dreams begin to take a life of their own and become real! Read the book to see what mayhem and havoc it causes… and what fun results!
Faustine
"’…I met the sad menopausee and offered her, at the flick of a switch, a return of beauty, youth, and desire. And – after all, I’m no stinge-merchant – power and money as well. Why not? If a man, such as Dr Faustus, was offered such commodities by myself… why not a woman, in this age of equality?’"
Emma Tennant’s ingenious modern-day reworking of the Faust legend describes a young woman’s dark discovery of just what befell her kindly long-lost grandmother.
The Crack
Look what’s happened!
A crack has opened in the Thames!
Hampstead uplifted high in the sky!
Watch the turmoil spread. See the loony psychoanalysts lead their demented flock around the cracked and broken streets. A religious maniac’s at large, she’s promising her female believers a new and man-less life on the ‘Other Side’.
And through it all goes Baba; dear sweet, kind unliberated Baba, leaving a trail of love and destruction in her wake.
