The Spiegelman Interpretation
I stumbled upon a short novel, The Spiegelman Interpretation, on Amazon. It's science fiction and seems heavily influenced by Barry N Malzberg (unless of course, it's another of Malzberg's nom de plumes) but might interest follows of the Electric Universe as it covers very similar ground. I particularly like the Einstein criticisms!

Re: The Spiegelman Interpretation
Notice how the story is told by someone clearly insane, thus it works.
Van Vogt, in his first story, The Black Destroyer, used characters that used logic and reason to understand and defeat the alien that was hunting them. If The Spiegelman Interpretation were written seriously, it would come under massive attack, seen as a threat to consensus science.
BTW, I will have to pull out my Malzberg books and see why this story reminds people of him.
Thanks...
