It's fantastic."--Paul Morley, BBC 2 TV "Newsnight Review"A man pulls back from the brink of suicide when his application to buy a gun with which to shoot himself is -delayed. Instead of throwing his life away, he decides to spend all his time and effort disposing of those who he feels deserve to die. With a renewed zest for living, he embarks on a joyful killing spree, having found the true purpose of his existence."Like all great writers, Selby does not answer questions.
