This audiobook features an ordinary man on an extraordinary journey living in a world glittering with technology in which something is wanting still. It is a supernatural thriller, a detective novel and a love story, with a cast of extraordinary characters, including a psychic 13-year-old drop-out with a passion for 'Talking Heads', a hunky matinee idol doomed to play dentists and teachers, a one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem.
