My review of Remedia, the new novel by Michael Joyce, is now available at Full Stop:
Michael Joyce is not only the author of what many consider the foundational work of hypertext fiction, afternoon, a love story(1987), but also probably the most important theoretician of hypertext as a literary medium (especially in the essays collected in Of Two Minds: Hypertext, Pedagogy, and Poetics, published in 1995). So it is of course tempting to approach his print novels — and most of his fiction in the last 20 years has been conventionally published in print — as somehow continuous with, or at least strongly influenced by, the hypertext works.
