This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
This books intention was to take the reader on a journey through through emotions with a ride through the deepest recesses of your mind and skill as a reader and thinker. This is NOT a light read and not something one would read for fun. This book has you thinking from page one and still thinking when you close the back cover.

This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
In what might be too "literary" a work for most readers, Splitting tells a tale of lost love, similar to something like Dante's Divine Comedy, only much, much stranger, and harder to follow. In the spirit of Kerouac or possibly Joyce, Clark presents a story in which every statement could have multiple meanings.

Be it a tale told from a denizen of a mental institution, or an account of a subversive alien invasion in a not-too-distance future, or maybe all the above, Clark really leaves a LOT up to interpretation.

This book is no behemoth, like Ulysses or Finnegans, so it's not too hard to consume, however, the very experimental nature of the writing may make it hard for many to digest. If you're looking for something weird, then perhaps this one's for you. If you're happy reading books that use a familiar grammatical structure and lexicon, be it a New York Times Bestseller, or a Pulitzer Prize winner, you're best going elsewhere.

I received this book as an Early Reviewer winner and I found it to be a lexicon filled expedition into the world of millennians. The vernacular was infused with rhythm, lyric and sardonic repartee. But more importantly its a tale of a ethereal quest where gender and gender-bending become trivial. I recommend this book to millennia lovers as well as fellow logophiles.
