About this product
Product Information
'Wiles is basically Kafka, if Kafka had spent more time in British hotels and pubs' David Baddiel Will Wiles both re-invents and murders the London novel, in a spectacular act of evil, surgical intensity' Warren Ellis 'It's outstanding' Mail on Sunday, Event Magazine The dark, doomy humour of Care of Wooden Floors mixed with the fantastical, anarchic sense of possibility of The Way Inn, brought together in a fast moving story set in contemporary London. Jack Bick is an interview journalist at a glossy lifestyle magazine. From his office window he can see a black column of smoke in the sky, the result of an industrial accident on the edge of the city. When Bick goes from being a high-functioning alcoholic to being a non-functioning alcoholic, his life goes into freefall, the smoke a harbinger of truth, an omen of personal apocalypse. An unpromising interview with Oliver Pierce, a reclusive cult novelist, unexpectedly yields a huge story, one that could save his job. But the novelist knows something about Bick, and the two men are drawn into a bizarre, violent partnership that is both an act of defiance against the changing city, and a surrender to its spreading darkness. With its rich emotional palette, Plume explores the relationship between truth and memory: personal truth, journalistic truth, novelistic truth. It is a surreal and mysterious exploration of the precariousness of life in modern London.

- d***- (84)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book arrived quickly and in good condition. Communication from the seller was good. My only concern is about the delivery driver… they left the package (in the rain) outside next doors gate which had a big number 3 on it when the parcel clearly stated I’m at number 2. They made no attempt to come down the path and put the parcel through the letterbox. It is only due to another neighbour walking past and seeing it, then bringing it to my door, that I received the parcel.The Dressmakers of Auschwitz: The True Story of the Women Who Sewed to Surviv...
