Synopsis: |
'I had this vision very clearly of a book in which I would record my total experience, and I knew how it should sound: with all the tones that no one ever admires - the Gruesome, Tender, Needy, Sleazy, Boring, the Lurid and the Cute.' In this way the hero of Adam Thirlwell's new novel describes the book you hold between your hands: a delirious tale of backchat and low tricks, all of which begin when our hero wakes beside a woman who is bleeding, unconscious and not, unfortunately, his wife...And then, of course, events get very much worse. SHORTLISTED FOR THE GOLDSMITHS PRIZE 2015. WINNER OF THE E.M. FORSTER AWARD 2015. |
