review 1: I dont know what to write a review about this book. because I dont know what author is trying to say.I gave 4 stars because I have come to know a new genre called "Transgressive fiction". but still I dont understand the theme behind this F***ng zero degree. its like each page is not linked.Lippogrammatic.. ok what is lippogrammatic.?Read again and again! :( :( so that you will not understand.
review 2: I neither liked this book nor disliked this book ! my head was swirling like anything when i'm done with thing ! this is my first non - linear & lipogrammatic novel !why did i read this novel ? * The legendary writer Sujatha called it ' a piece of shit'. *Tehelka called it "Style with substance". *Some called for the book to be banned straight away.*Wikipedia cal... morels it 'Postmodern lipogrammatic" novel .*some call it transgressive fiction.First, remember everything you are told and have believed a novel is, particularly the Indian novel. Some things on the lines of:->A novel is a work of fiction.->It contains several common elements such as character, plot, narrative.->It explores what is loosely called the human condition.->It may sometimes be an instrument for social change.->It is a socio-political reflection of its times.->It entertains, informs, educates, etc.A literary genre that graphically explores such topics as incest and other aberrant sexual practices, mutilation, the sprouting of sexual organs in various places on the human body, urban violence and violence against women, drug use, and highly dysfunctional family relationships, and that is based on the premise that knowledge is to be found at the edge of experience and that the body is the site for gaining knowledge.With its mad patchwork of phone sex conversations, nightmarish torture scenes, tender love poems, mythology, and numerology, Charu Nivedita′s novel continues to give shocks to readers ! less
