SPLITTING is a novel of wild ideas, word devilry, a mad romance starring a cast of boisterously original millennians. SPLITTING is a state of mind where mythology, poetry, and archetypal fantasy combine to take the reader on a daring exploration of love and consciousness. "Brian Clark's first novel is a fever dream: a voluptuous explosion of melody and rhythm. A gender-bending ride in search of spiritual identity, SPLITTING revels in the regenerative power of art and language." — Nikki Dillon, author of SCRATCH. "With Brian Charles Clark's world-heavyweight-champion novel, SPLITTING...why not just let yourself be knocked out by the phenomenal language and stimulating skylarking... In this hallucinatory yet grounded tale, a nameless woman—sometimes embodied, sometimes not—narrates the struggle of a band of desperate yet funky individualist dreamers plotting to escape the mind-domination of a race of potassium-based aliens who have long enslaved humanity. Our narrator employs a richly allusive and punning style, half Joyce, half William Burroughs... SPLITTING stands both as hypnagogic bible and its own decommissioning anti-text." — Paul Di Filippo, Asimov's Magazine
