Media Reviews
'Nazi flying saucers over an alternate 50s Memphis, the cross-time abduction of Elvis Presley, and what must surely be one of the flat-out weirdest Fisher King inversions yet perpetrated in American literature... delivers a jarringly potent kick in the head. I can only urge you to put yours cleanly it's way' WILLIAM GIBSON On LET'S PUT THE FUTURE BEHIND US: 'Dark, brilliant and deeply worrying. Much like Russia itself.' ESQUIRE 'I don't expect to read a funnier and more profound book this year, and you shouldn't either.' TIME OUT
Author Bio
Jack Womack was born in Kentucky in 1956. Having survived a Kafka-esque childhood, he travelled to New York, saw it with an outsider's eye and has never been the same since. In Womack's novels, New York is strange and unsettling, a city of joy and pain, horror and transcendence. Dubbed 'the coolest writer of his generation', Womack is the favourite author of William Gibson.
