An Easy Way Guide To Life! You Will Need ItThis Is A Book About Random Things That May Help You In Life
Published to mark the 300th anniversary of first publication of Robinson Crusoe, Good Morning Mr Crusoe argues that the legacy of Defoe's novel is racism and misogyny embedded in the fabric of British society.
In June 1819 Henri Beyle (aka Stendhal) is rejected by the woman he loves. Beyle finds himself stranded in an afterlife populated by tourists, shoplifters and characters in novels he hasn't yet written. Footnoting a host of other writers, An Overcoat is an obsessional play upon the life and work of one of the founders of the modern novel.
Part memoir, part fiction, Robinson explores the disfiguring influence of Defoe's Robinson Crusoe on English culture. The latter-day Robinsons of Kafka, Celine, Patrick Keiller and others are surveyed, and Robinson himself has his say as a fictional character.
