About this listen

Man Booker Prize, Fiction, 2003

Teenager Vernon Gregory Little's life has been changed by the Columbine-style slaughter of a group of students at his high school. Soon his hole-in-the-wall town is blanketed under a media siege, and Vernon finds himself blamed for the killing. Eulalio Ledesma is his particular nemesis, manipulating things so that Vernon becomes the fulcrum for the bizarre and vengeful impulses of the townspeople of Martirio. After a truly surrealistic set of events, Vernon finds himself heading for a fateful assignation in Mexico with the delectable Taylor Figueros...

The first 80% of this novel is excellent. Unfortunately the author appears to have sucumbed to pressure to produce a 'happy ending', and appantly re-wrote the ending. I would be very interested t didn't make senseo read the original version. Having said that, it's still a brilliant book and I greatly enjoyed it.

The reading was very competent, although at times it seemed rushed, ...not in pace, but some phrasing missed the meaning.

A Great story, marred by a poorly-judged feel-good ending.

As soon as I’d finished, i wanted to go right back and listen all over again. ‘Nuff fucken said, boy. You got yer Mozarts and yer Immanuel Kants all a-mushed up with the wrong Shrodie kittens, and now to add to thems, yer DBC Pierres. Just how it is, is all.

Hilariously insightful
