Oscillation is a book that explores mental illness, grief, and identity. The main character, Simon, has to live his life within the timeframe of the 1940's, where mental illnesses were heavily stigmatized. The rich thematic resonance of the book perfectly blends surreal storytelling, while also remaining grounded. It takes romance, tragedy, and even a bit of comedy to create a deep story.
The listener will find themselves within the depths of Simon's psyche, feeling as he feels as he traverses the levels within his mind. There are 31 chapters, each will be able to pull your mind within the realms of the story. The surreal nature will make you question the nature of Simon's reality as he gets immured for a crime he has no memory of committing. He falls into rich and detailed worlds while facing legal punishment, unsure of what is even real.
Oscillation holds strong potential as a literary debut with speculative edge, appealing to a niche but passionate listenership. Its exploration of mental illness, grief, love and identity through both grounded and surreal lenses gives it rich thematic resonance, all while sprinkling in horrific elements. The unique structure, which blends romance, tragedy, metaphysical journeying, and even a bit of comedy, sets it apart in today's literary market.
