Robinson by Christopher Petit

Robinson by Christopher Petit

Set in London, this novel tells the story of Robinson, and it is a story of moral seduction. The narrator is drawn into Robinson's web, starts to drink too much, abandons his wife and job and eventually starts working for Robinson, first running a second-hand bookshop and second as an editor for Robinsons's increasingly bizarre and pornographic films. The book becomes increasingly intense - the weather worsens, London collapses, the moral uncertainties grow - and the images grow and proliferate- the sea, storms, death by drowning. At one level a traditional novel of character - Robinson and Cookie, time - the present and place - London, it is also a story of moral degeneration, voyeurism and sexual collusion.
