Synopsis
"I never gave a monkeys for Marxism or Monarchism or Liberalism or Conservatism or Socialism or any ism. I've always been leery of anyone brandishing an ism - an excuse to howl at the moon if you ask me. And they're all moralists too, always got it in for someone else, usually someone like me." - Archibald Brinsley Fox. Rough as robber's dog and licentious as Sodom's finest, Archibald Fox was never the stuff of revolutionary heroes. So what on Earth was he doing at Lenin's side in Petrograd during the Spring of Hope'... He was hoping to thieve a Faberg Egg and seduce Lenin's former mistress... Alas, the mood of Russia soon darkens... The Germans are invading while the economy goes to hell in a handcart. Lynch mobs rule the streets. Leaden brutality, casual rape and spouting paranoid cobblers are all the rage... Can Fox pluck his priceless Egg from the prevailing mayhem? Will the woman of his dreams take refuge in his arms? No. Not a hope. In this cursed land Fox can only hope to get battered by Cossacks, hounded by a brute he cuckolded, pursued by a rabble of Dark Age villagers, press-ganged into a murderous militia, chased across country by Red Guards and tangle with some dangerously desperate women (so it isn't all bad)... Praise for Hennessey's first novel, Drowning in the Shallows, a contemporary satire and a cult hit in the author's native Scotland:- "... a terrific story... one of the funniest, sharpest debuts of the year..." The Big Issue "From the crackling start to the end of this debut novel the wit and pace are relentless and magnetic..." Scotland on Sunday "Brilliant, intelligent and consuming writer... " The List "An unflinching, brilliantly observed debut novel of love and sex." Publishing News "... tremendous energy... excellent lines... manic comedy... Hennessey tells it with style..." - Sunday Herald, "I never gave a monkeys for Marxism or Monarchism or Liberalism or Conservatism or Socialism or any ism.
