Reviews
'A sort of absurdist, amoral fable ... Over time I grew rather fond of the conceited young rogue. There is something exquisitely tragic about Water's life, a repetitive parade of posh restaurants, press views and disinterested flings. Ultimately, he's a tad boring - not something you could say about the novel he stars in.'

- Richard Godwin, Literary Review

Excerpts
Don't read this next bit too carefully. When you try and say anything general about art it always comes out dumb and easy to contradict. Perhaps you should even skip to Chapter One.
