The Bridge is a darkly brilliant novel of self-discovery, residing on the cutting edge of experimental fiction. It is set on a mysterious, world-spanning structure known only as the Bridge, where everyone seems to live from nowhere to nowhere.
The protagonist, John Orr, is rescued from the sea with no memory or personality. All he knows is the Bridge, his persistent dreams of war, and his desire for Chief Engineer Arrol's provocative daughter, Abberlaine.
As Orr explores this extraordinary world, he experiences outrageous contrasts and elegant absurdities. By day, he navigates the Bridge; by night, he dreams of desperate men driving sealed carriages across barren mountains, illiterate barbarians storming enchanted towers, and broken men walking endlessly over bridges.
This novel is frequently hilarious and consistently disturbing, challenging the boundaries between reality and dreams, day and night.
