The Face on the Cutting-Room Floor by Cameron Mccabe
An extraordinary post-modern detective novel from an author who remained a mystery for decades, now relaunched as a Picador Classic.
The Face on the Cutting-Room Floor is a weird, funny, perverse exercise in literary messing-aboutIt's a murder mystery that pulls the rug from under the reader, then pulls the floor from under the rug, then questions whether the floor was even there. It's a great, and baffling, experience, and the less you know about it beforehand, the better. -- Mark Watson

Though The Face on the Cutting-Room Floor was first published in 1937, the true identity of its author remained a mystery until 1974 when it was discovered that the well-known German sexologist, jazz musician and critic Ernest Borneman was 'Cameron McCabe'. Borneman died in 1995.
