 The interactive reading experience
Moulthrop's hypernovel is one of the seminal works of this genre. Dealing with those twin foes of love and war, it challenges the reader not only to 'navigate' through the novel in a manner satisfactory to them but also in such a way as to do justice to Moulthrop's well-woven story.pThe novel is set against the background of the Gulf War and the accompanying media frenzy. Imagery and symbolism become important elements in enhancing the reading experience and an appreciation for world avents is helpful but not crucial in reading the lexias. pThe novelty of having a map to navigate with rather than a contents page encourages reader participation as you follow the lives of Emily Runbird, her family and friends as they battle 'the enemy'.pMoulthrop demonstrates to us that hypertext novels are far from boring with his clever use of typography, illustration and the best element of all, surprise. This is a prime of example of how the multi-layers act to give each reader a unique reading experience.pTake a stroll through the garden -- I guarantee that you'll be surprised.
