Beschreibung

'Exhilaratingly astute' Sunday Times

Joshua Levin goes by many names: Jo to his girlfriend, Jackie to his family, Jonjo to his ex-marine, PTSD-suffering landlord, and Teacher Josh to Ana: the married woman with whom he has started an affair. But perhaps the greatest role Josh will play is writer and creator of Zombie Wars, one screenplay that he will finish, unless Ana's violent husband makes good on his threat to bring things to a more permanent conclusion . . .

Just as Joshua throws caution to the winds, America finds itself in a moment of national crisis, and soon the headlines are filled with yet another war. As the stakes are raised from indulgence, to absurdity, to life and death, the world of Zombie Wars starts to look sane by comparison with what passes for reality.

'Caustic and tender, enraged and forgiving, giggly and plaintive' Scotland on Sunday

'A comic novel with BRAAAINS . . . Hemon is a master at camouflaging the deeper elements of this novel amid its tomfoolery' Washington Post

'A delightful ride through an ordinary life kicking into high, crazy gear. With zombies' Los Angeles Times
