O knihe
Allen Ashley's tales of Urban Fantasy are
intensely surreal, savagely satirical, subtly
subversive and despairingly funny. Possessed
of a unique vision and a distinctive prose
style, Allen Ashley exposes the absurdities of
modern British society like no other writer.
Every waking moment is a struggle for
continued sanity and survival as we muddle
thoughtlessly through this surrealist joke
called civilisation. The challenges - factual,
fictitious, mythical, eminently plausible -
just keep on coming. Ashley demonstrates
that, if you have the nose for it, apocalypse
can be smelled everywhere - in the latest
media circus; in the latest dubious laws or
government measures; in celebrity culture
or the surveillance state; in the mindsets and
prejudices of the population and in the tiniest
actions we all perform.
