Introducing
FIXED
LIMITS
A novelistic e-book by John O’Loughlin
Which
can be previewed via the link below the following Centretruths
editorial:-
If John O’Loughlin’s first novel Changing Worlds betrays the
influence (through souped-up interior monologue) of
James Joyce on his early fiction, then the chief inspiration behind this
fictional journal was undoubtedly Jean-Paul Sartre or, rather, Sartre's first
novel Nausea, which made such a profound impression on him ...
that he simply felt the need to attempt something similar - albeit within a
necessarily different milieu and social setting. This was in the autumn of 1976, and the
result was an account of some three weeks in the life of the very same
character whom we first encounter as a disillusioned clerk in the earlier
novel, but whose existence here, as a budding writer, is nothing short of a
spiritual rebirth! Now that Michael
Savage has become or, at any rate, is in the process of becoming his
intellectual self ... we are led into an even more subjective world than that
of his previous incarnation, with further opportunities for both
autobiographical and philosophical speculation.
In fact, Fixed Limits should be regarded as the sequel to Changing
Worlds, without prior reference to which much of its subject-matter and
environmental settings would seem difficult, if not impossible, to
understand. For Mr O’Loughlin,
this was his literary ‘black hole’ which gradually led him into a new universe
of fictional writings thereafter, beyond the reach of his early mentors. - A Centretruths editorial.
