About the Author

Joshua V. Scher is a recent transplant from New York City to the Hollywood hills, where he is continuing his transition from writing for the stage to the screen, both theatrical and television. His film, I’m OK, is in postproduction and slated for a festival run in 2016. The cinematic adaptation of his play The Footage was developed by Pressman Film. Scher collaborated with Joe Frazier and Penny Marshall’s Parkway Productions on the Joe Frazier biopic Behind the Smoke. He also worked with Danny Glover and Louverture Films on Scher’s original TV pilot, Jigsaw. His works for the stage include Marvel, Flushed, and Velvet Ropes, as well as the musical Triangle. He holds a bachelor’s degree with honors in creative writing from Brown University and a master of fine arts degree in playwriting from Yale University. This is his first novel.

I always research upcoming new releases from imprints so I had already decided that “Here and There” was the only Kindle First I would be interested in for October. The description was interesting and I expected a sci fi/techno thriller. So I was concerned when I saw this listed as “Experimental” fiction. What the heck was that supposed to mean? I leave the literary reviews to those more qualified, this is just about deciding if it is something you want to try.

So… what is experimental about this? Well, first the structure. Many recent books from Andy Weir’s “The Martian” to Jami Attenberg’s “Saint Maizie” tell their story with a combination of everything from journals to interviews, traditional third party/ past tense chapters to omniscient present tense. This is that structure on steroids.

The premise is that the novel is really a large briefcase stuffed with materials accompanied by a very long cover letter. The case includes drafts of a psychological study by the mother, Hilary (think profiler, again on steroids), inserted notes and stories by the letter writer (her son Danny, a fine story teller), physics lectures, physics lectures disguised as short stories written by one of the characters, official transcripts of videos, the psychologist’s description of videos, official (redacted) documents and more. And many of these are inserted into others, which meant I was constantly having to go back to remind myself where I was before the interruption In addition, there are interactive footnotes and links. (Frankly, I recommend skipping those until the end or have the footnotes open on a second device. I had a terrible time getting back to the page from the footnotes) **

This is a very dense, challenging read.
