Endland
批評家のレビュー
"It insists on being read at once and probably out loud." (Iain Sinclair)
"This book is dangerous. This book tells it like it was and is." (Jarvis Cocker)
"Etchells has made a tough, eloquent, emotional new language of ideas about class, human fragility, lust, embarrassment and a good night out. He is a legend." (Deborah Levy)
あらすじ・解説
Includes selected stories featuring original music composed by the author’s collaborators.
Screwed-up England, and its characters, channelled in strange, twisted, funny, cartoon-like innovative fiction that grasps our times better than straight realism.
A comical and brutal weave of parables gone wrong.
Endland holds a broken mirror to England. In its garish but strangely familiar world of empty tower blocks, 24-hour cyber cafes and bomb sites, a motley collection of misfits, wanderers and charmed drunks do their best to survive. Nothing is stable in Endland, and what's more, the gods have started drinking at lunchtime, which can lead only to trouble.
Conjured in a mix of slang, pub anecdote, folktale and science fiction, Endland is the nightmare unfolding just outside the window - a glitchy parade of ageing bikers and ghost children, cut-price assassins and witless wannabe celebs.
The world fashioned by Thatcher, Google, NATO, ICANN, Brexit, Big Brother, Bin Laden, and Trump needs new narratives to make sense of it. In Endland, with feverish wit and a broken compass, Etchells unpicks the myths and strange realities we're caught up in.
