Fugue - David Houston - Bog

Bag om Fugue

Fugue is a work of literary fiction that is coupled with a six track, musical concept album. The genre of the book blends dystopian, romantic, and suspense elements within a plot-driven narrative that unfolds across 30 years, four continents, and between three main characters. Finley Hughes, Katrina Scarlet Worthington, and Gregory Trueheart each face a dramatic, life-changing event around the age of eighteen, setting them upon a path that irrevocably intertwines their story and romantic involvement for better and for worse. The plot shifts in a dystopian direction halfway through the story after the "Annihilation of Ages" terrorist attacks redefine the geopolitical landscape of America and the entire world. Everything else is pure fugue, the title itself referring either to the style of musical composition I've adopted as a literary metaphor, the etymology of the word from Latin (meaning 'to flee'), or in reference to the psychological 'fugue state' (similar to amnesia). www.davidhoustonfugue.com
