Synopsis

How does Jeremiah Mount, the dealer in pornography, come to be the lover of the Duchess of Albermarle and the colleague of the great Pepys' Diary, Jem Mount plays a shadowy role, but in Jem's own memoirs Sam Pepys looms large. Friends and drinking partners at first, they become vicious rivals for fame and women. This 'newly discovered autobiography' - with its disconcerting echoes of our own time -brings a splendidly dubious hero to life.
