I only just finished reading this book a couple of days ago, and it feels in some ways too soon to write about it.This is not an easy book. There is something to take virtually every reader out of his or her sexual comfort zone. And yet it is deeply suffused with love and the joy of living in a community that accepts you for who you are, quirks and all.The story starts in 2007, just before 17-year-old Eric Jeffers moves to the small seaside village of Diamond Harbor and meets the love of his life, 19-year-old Morgan Haskell (who goes by a nickname that cannot be quoted in this review). The book unfolds from Eric's point of view, following the two men into the 2070s through various careers, the loss of family members, the gradual evolution of the seaside community as more (and different) residents move in, and a rich and robust sex life. The sexual play between them follows repetitive, slowly evolving patterns--but that is part of the point. What is so often elided in fiction is here presented as an integral part of the warp and woof of their relationship to each other and to the community, and in the end the accumulation of the quotidian salacious details adds up to something greater than the sum of its lubricious parts.It is also about community--how it supports us, how we support it, how it changes over time--and about memory--about the bumps and gaps of individual memory as well as of community history. It is also about the ongoing thread of sensual and sensory experience--full of precisely described moments and details of food, weather, light and clothing. It lets you closely observe the lives of a handful of people who never are in the spotlight or at the turning points of history, but who view all of that from a distance.Spending 800 pages with Eric and Morgan feels like it has been a richly rewarding and touching experience, but one that is in some ways difficult to articulate because it is in some ways experiential, expressed through the lived details of their lives revealed over a lifetime.
I enjoyed this book. It began as a sweet and odd coming of age story. The tale of a young man exploring his sexuality in ways I could never have imagined. As the adventure continued we find that the young man enjoys many things with many people including deep deep love for his life partner and father.Moments of this book surprised me, taking up topics that felt taboo and off limits, then humanizing and softening each piece. DeLaney’s gentle approach exhibited care throughout and guided readers to compassionate views of matters that are often seen as strange and off limits.
Challenging and off-putting, transgressive and liberating, mundane and joyous, "Through the Valley . . ." is Delany at his frighteningly honest best. Mixing elements of sf, pornography and journalistic epic, he weaves the tale of two life companions from their first meeting through the end of their days.This is not an easy read, but life is not often easily lived, and the pay-off is the beauty of Delany's language - his eye for the odd but telling detail and the social comment ever-present but never didactic.Delany is our Wolff, our Joyce (and sometimes our Sacher-Masoch) and this is a truly memorable, even epic, ride.
As "Internet puppy" Charlie Stross blogged the other day, "We're living in the 21st century: it's not possible to write a novel that seriously explores modern life without a background that includes rapid, cheap international travel: the commercial space industry: smartphones and the internet and spam: social networking sites, Facebook and Twitter: the rapidly shifting reference points of life expectancy, gender roles, and politics." Thus my first impression, reading the first half of TTVOTNOS, was that the young Eric, who turned 21 in 2012, was not such a well-formed character. For one thing, he was always looking for ways to break taboos in secret without ever once Googling the search-friendly fetishes he professed. Mid-way through, it became clear that Eric knew full well about computers and was actively avoiding them. This works as fiction because Delany's novel is more transgressive than what teenagers find on the Internet.The prose is also beautiful. The incorporation of passages from a 17th century philosophical work, Ethica, is particularly effective; it might even prompt a few readers to pick up Spinoza.However, after sitting through the long lessons on coprophilia and so forth, Delany's subsequent restraint in building the world of the 2030s through 2070s was disappointing. Colony on Mars, check. Clothes wash and repair themselves, check. Gay marriage common and polygamy on rise, check. Thin gruel. Stars in My Pocket like Grains of Sand virtually invented the internet; or rather, offered a vision of what a fully networked society might look like. That book was published something like a year before Rock Hudson died; Delany retrenched and never completed its sequel or any new science fiction novel at all until now. Since this book opens on a hedonistic note, I suspected he was picking up where he left off. In the end, I was surprised by his conservative touch. Despite having lesbians on the Moon, this world seems partly mired in our turn-of-the-millennium cultural swamp despite the passage of seventy years. Memory of the past weighs on protagonists Eric and Morgan, of course, but also on subsequent generations, due to factors like an offstage global tragedy Delany drops in abruptly two-thirds of the way through. Eric at the end of his long life is interviewed by a historian of sexual practices, yet he omits the worst out of deference to the young scholar's fragile sensibilities, and warns the youth of the far future about parasites.Though it is interesting to consider why Delany didn't go farther with his world building, this book is excellent. It makes me hopeful he has another great science fiction novel or two still on the way.
In his first science fiction novel in a looong time, Delany gives us the story of two lovers across several decades, from youth to old age. There is a great deal of explicit (and occasionally gross) sex, but oddly the book isn't very "stimulating" that way: the sex isn't cold and clinical, but described in very factual terms that keep it from being really pornographic.The science fiction is almost in the background; the "future" that happens is presented mostly as it affects our protagonists, who are far from the center of society.
