Beschreibung

Two holidaymakers die of a mysterious condition while on holiday in Corfu, piquing neurologist Lauren Furrows's interest. She investigates, finding help in the unlikely form of Richard Anger: independent bookshop owner, avant garde (unpublished) short story writer and borderline alcoholic. Together they discover the killer: best-selling author Gary Sayles and his insipid novels. Will they be able to stop him before millions die?

Wildly humorous, this is a book that will challenge and play with your brain, wryly.

Rezensionen


This agitated and jagged novel is a timely intervention in the war of position between people who love books and people who just love flogging them ... Hill is a smart writer - provocative but not juvenile, ironic but not weary. He has fashioned a serrated little weapon of war here. Read it carefully. This book could really hurt someone. Someone who probably deserves it.

s evident passion for literature, convincingly eludes disposability.
A pacy, daft little comedy which can be zipped through with ease. It's light, it's fun, but, as a consequence of Hill'

A marvellously observed [and] accomplished first novel

Rich in wry social commentary, funny and linguistically dextrous

Effortless prose packed with humour that is genuinely laugh-out-loud funny

An entertaining, pacy read

Dark, anarchic, naughtily funny ... An entertaining novel warning us about the way that the book industry is going
s satire on the book world is sharp, funny, and shrewd
Charlie Hill'

Playful, unruly and bursting with generous energy

The comic extremes of the plot are anchored by credible central characters and a tone that stays on the right side of wacky. Books is an entertaining, pacy read that should not have any adverse effects on your own brain.
