Lights Out in Wonderland
Gabriel Brockwell, aesthete, poet, philosopher, disaffected twenty-something decadent, is looking to end it all with one last journey of excess. Taking in London, Tokyo, Berlin and the Galapagos Islands, “Lights Out In Wonderland” documents Gabriel Brockwell`s remarkable global odyssey. Committed to the pursuit of pleasure to obliterate all previous parties, Gabriel`s adventure takes in a spell in rehab, a near-death experience with fugu ovaries, a sexual encounter with an octopus, and finally an orgiastic feast in the bowels of Berlin`s majestic Tempelhof Airport. Along the way we see a character disintegrate and re-shape before our eyes. An allegorical banquet and a sly commentary on the march towards mindless banality, DBC Pierre`s third novel is an unexpectedly joyful expression of the human spirit.
