It's not bad. His best stuff is Coin Locker Babies and Almost Transparent Blue. Popular Hits, In the Miso Soup, From the Fatherland with Love....these and his other novels are sort of these shot to the arm, short and punchy social commentaries. In the Miso Soup is very good, and is about a bit more than it seems at first blush.

I try to read pic related and it bored me on the begining so I give up. I will give a try to ATB and IMS.

Almost transparent blue is a god tier novella.

i read the first line of 'coin locker babies' adn decided it probably wouldnt be for me
is 'in the miso soup' any better
i kinda hate extreme violence in books, i just feel like whats left up to the imagination is often more effective

In the Miso Soup.
It's short, but gives you a good idea of what he's about.
His books give me the feelings Philip Ridley's used to give me as a child.
