Product Description
Another surreal masterpiece from the author of
Needle in the Groove and
Vurt, soon to be a major film.
Marlene Moore wasn’t even sure why she accepted the job, except that it gave her the chance to just get in her car and drive -- to escape, to keep moving, to maybe find a destination for herself. Now she’s journeying around England, a land that turns stranger and more dreamlike the further she travels. Slowly, day by day, Marlene is falling prey to a sickness, a disease that seems to change the world around her. And the job itself turns out to be far more weird, and more dangerous, than she ever imagined. A road novel like no other,
Falling Out of Cars explores a country, and a psyche, falling off the edge of reality.
