I am really loving “The Book of Ash” by James Flint. Gripping, funny, provocative. The non-fiction novel (is that what it is?) has photos in it – which is in itself quirky like the whole project. On close examination (on the net) the photos are really quite exquisite, though they don’t reproduce well. I like his over the top language, in the way I like Tim Robbins.
The most I have enjoyed a book since “Snow Crash”. Highly recommended.
