Produktinformasjon
''Utterly triumphant... She''s a thoroughly sui generis visionary - and, after reading The Coiled Serpent, I''d say one of the most startlingly original writers we''ve got.'' A K Blakemore, GuardianA little girl throws up Gloria-Jean''s teeth after an explosion at the custard factory; Pax, Alexander, and Angelo are hypnotically enthralled by a book that promises them enlightenment if they keep their semen inside their bodies; Victoria is sent to a cursed hotel for ailing girls when her period mysteriously stops. In a damp, putrid spa, the exploitative drudgery of work sparks revolt; in a Margate museum, the new Director curates a venomous garden for public consumption.In Grudova''s unforgettably surreal style, these stories expose the absurdities behind contemporary ideas ofwork, Britishness and art-making, to conjure a singular, startling strangeness that proves the deft skill of a writerat the top of her game.
