Those from Fat Man posit what-ifs, with the title story wondering how, were some post-Marxist utopia to declare obesity counter-revolutionary, a household of fat men would strike back. Those from War Crimes are all in one way or another about power - those who wield it, those who want it, and those who recall either its dazzling exhilaration or degradation.

Livre
Hardback. The stories in Peter Carey's collection are bizarre, funny and chilling. Their landscape is exotic and surreal, an ominous near-future that has the distinct feel of contemporary life. Carey's narratives are an exhilarating blend of fable, fantasy and allegory in which, as in dreams, something odd and menacing takes control.Here are societies in which people gamble for new bodies in a genetic lottery or watch apprehensively as first buildings, then parts of the landscape, and eventually their neighbours, begin to dematerialise and vanish. Here is what happens when a miniature replica of a small town and its inhabitants assumes a more compelling reality than its original or when a group of fat men, ostracised by a revolutionary government, plot its overthrow. 1974, First edition. A very good copy of the scarce hardcover edition of this twice Booker Prize winning authors first book. Light rubbing to the spine ends and base of the boards and the usual light tanning of the pages. This is an interesting association copy in that it was once owned by Sister Veronica Brady and has her signature on the front free endpaper and ink linings throughout the text. The d/w is good with some edge chipping and is now in a protective cover. Scans available if required.
