About The Book

The first novel from the visionary author and film-maker, Chris Petit.

Christo, working in the periphery of the film industry in Soho, has a crumbling marriage and a house in the suburbs. Then he meets the enigmatic and persuasive, Robinson.
Robinson leads Christo into a different London, full of alcoholism, excitement and depravity. Together, they start to make films together, convinced they can produce a masterpiece. Soon Christo wants out, but Robinson’s world is not one you walk away from. Will Robinson let Christo get out alive?

‘Stylistically and thematically, the book owes a great deal to Ballard, with. . . a soupçon of Patrick Hamilton’ Guardian
