Set This House In Order

[arhuaine.livejournal.com]

I heard on a mailing list about a novel called "Set This House In Order" on the subject of Multiplicity, and after reading the first four chapters on the Matt Ruff website I couldn't NOT buy it. I'm almost halfway through already. It's very good so far; Ruff seems to have as much disdain for the psychiatric model of multiplicity as we do. And there's lots in it that we relate to very strongly; mostly with the character of Andrew Gage(the organised, co-conscious system) but also in part with Penny Driver (the unaware, disordered system). I may write more about these things when we've finished the book. Ruff references Astraea's Web as his online reference for multiplicity, which has to be a good thing. I think he must at least have talked extensively with some real multiples to write this book.

Anyone else read it? Thoughts?
