Novels by Kelvin Tanthe Nethe(r);R, 2002
the Nethe(r);R is the second book by Kelvin.

It is an intense questioning of existential and artistic truths.

(The complete essay is published in All Broken Up and Dancing -A Meta Novel)

Jim Morrison of The Doors wrote about an experience where he thought the souls of American Indians killed in an accident, which he witnessed as a child, enter him. A subsequent part of the song has these lyrics:
Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream

Come with us

Everything is broken up and dances


Directly or indirectly this song may have influenced Tan in his choice of words for the title when he wrote his first novel All Broken Up and Dancing – A Meta Novel. Tan’s honors year thesis at the National University of Singapore was entitled Modified in the Guts: The Influence of Mikhail Bakhtin on the study of modern literature. Polyphony and carnival as we would see in Tan’s work, are concepts he would constantly come back to. Polyphony, a term from classical music, as used by Russian literary critic Bakhtin, refers to the embodiment of many voices in a work rather than a single authorial voice. Carnival refers to an area of chaos where time, space and structure are suspended and where authority does not exist. Is there a connection between the disembodied Indian souls in Morrison’s song and multiplicity of voices and the lack of a continuous time and spatial narration in Tan’s novel? Morrison’s fascination with Indian rituals recalling the dead does have a certain disruption of orderly time and space; further, the element of dancing is an integral part of carnival. Perhaps this novel can be regarded as a an act of carnival and polyphony in which the writer and his characters struggle to bring forth something that has been misunderstood, under-promoted and yet which has achieved cult status with a legion of underground readers.
