Illusionist David Blaine entered a small Perspex box adjacent to London's Thames River on September 5, 2003, and began starving himself. Forty-four days later, on October 19, he emerged from the box, fifty pounds lighter. While this much is clear, the rest of the story is filled with crowds, chaos, hype, rage, fights, lust, filth, and hypocrisy.
Nicola Barker fearlessly crams all of this and more into her ribald and outrageous peep show of a novel, her most irreverent, caustic, and up-to-the-minute work yet. In this novel, she lays bare the heart of our contemporary world, a world of illusion, delusion, celebrity, and hunger.
