With daring skill, the növel pieces together the complex patterns and crossings öf modern úrban life. Greed, the dehumanising effects of the electronic age and the fragmentation of society are somé of the themes
dealt with in this savagely humorous book. The writing on thé wall appears in letters ten feet high, but the characters refuse to see it - and
party on as thougli tomorrow is a dream.
Sebastian Faulks probes not only the self-deceptions of this intensely realised group of people, but thei^hopes and loves as well. As the növel moves to its gripping climax, the^are forced, one by one, to confront the true nature of the world they inhabit.
