The pleasure of reading Richard Holeton's Figurski at Findhorn on Acid is not in its postmodern, affective disorientation. The details of the plot may be hard to follow, but like a TV sitcom, you can jump between episodes in any order and still understand what is basically going on. Unlike a TV sitcom, when you jump between episodes, you may suddenly find yourself in a sci-fi series, a surrealist prose-poem, or a high school English textbook. Figurski uses these minor moments of adjustment to catch the reader off guard for a laugh and never to conceal paths through the text. In my first reading, I found myself inclined to use the shifting of genres to guide my reading, following each genre to its conclusion before moving on. Figurski even gives us notes to interpret itself. This is not merely the sort of metanarration seen in previous hypertexts, although Figurski has its share of self-reflexive puns glimpsing into hypertextual theory, too. Figurski often uses the fictional critic Alan Richardson to both parody and analyze itself. Two notes in the text, "041" and "013," are charts that show the macrostructure of Figurski using metaphor to replace the original text, such as "Technology" to replace "Artifact Options." Figurski reserves its most farcical self-commentary for a hard-to-find lexia, "*Note about Notes."
