Summary

When you need to speak to one of Eddie Thermidor's boys then you'd better send the right man. Taffy Atom is that man - he's made his luck on the streets of Beerlight, he has a truly monstrous goldfish and perhaps he can get to the bottom of what happened the night the City Brain Facility blew up.

Atom Summary

Atom by Steve Aylett

The new Beerlight novel features the hunt for a missing brain, a plot that only a writer as benevolently unhinged as Steve Aylett could turn into an entertainment. Beerlight is nightmare city of the future (albeit a future that may be only a week away) where violence is the new art form and artists are the only people with regular jobs. In a cartoon landscape, larger-than-life characters act out plots that would be rejected by Hollywood for being too over the top, yet which still carry a serious message about violence in society. This is satire at its most vicious and most pure. Jonathan Swift would understand Beerlight.

About Steve Aylett
