Before you is ALTERNATIVE FICTION!!!Sharp. Paradoxical. Funny. Bitter. Forcing readers to admire - and be indignant, argue - and discuss what they read. Science fiction that will not leave ANYONE indifferent! However, “alternative fiction” by Rudy Rucker is much broader and more ambitious than the “cyberpunk” genre. The best proof of this is the novel “White Light”. The story of a mathematician from a provincial college who finds himself in the other world is officially considered a “metaphysical thriller,” but in reality it is difficult to define as a genre. Fantastic? Parable? Mystic? Everyone will find something of their own here. The best thing to say about this novel is this: “This book is not like the others. She is everything. She is White Light!”
