‘The satirical English novel of the decade’ Observer
From the moment an unemployed City broker is devoured by an escapee from the Zoo, we are embarked upon a dazzling journey through ’90s London. A city peopled by a rich and varied cast of characters with intriguingly different backgrounds: from the City, to journalism, the criminal underworld, advertising, music hall and the East End… while lurking in the background is nemesis, in the shape of a hungry lion.
‘Does for London what Bonfire of the Vanities did for New York.’ The Sunday Times

The satirical English novel of the decade.
Genuine art . . . not since Timothy Mo's Sour Sweet, or even Graham Green's It's a Battlefield has there been such an incisive and comic picture of London.
A powerfully written and wonderfully contemporary novel.
Does for London what Bonfire of the Vanities did for New York.
