Περιγραφή για I'm New Here Ian Russell-Hsieh Scribner UK

Fired from his job and dumped by his girlfriend, Taiwanese-British photographer Sean flies to Taipei to seek oblivion. Lost in the neon heat of his parents\' homeland, though, all he finds is alienation. He spends his days sleeping feverishly in a bleak hotel bedroom, and his nights alternating between casual sex and a crappy striplit doughnut bar. Whatever he thought Taiwan would give him, it hasn’t worked: he feels as distanced and resentful of his heritage as he ever has. Then, a chance encounter with a mysterious older man draws him into a friendship where the terms of engagement are quickly, ominously blurred. For every tentative step towards connection, Sean’s grasp on reality unravels, as the demands of the past and the present begin to take their toll. As events draw to a disturbing head, Sean’s mind spirals, until he’s not sure what’s left of him at all. Appealing to fans of Boy Parts and Luster, I’m New Here is a thrilling, hallucinatory debut and masterclass in unreliable narration that positions Ian Russell-Hsieh as one of the most exciting new authors in the UK. \'Shares DNA with cult classics Fight Club and American Psycho... A compelling character study.\' Daily Mail  \'Insanely compelling writing.\' Claire Kohda, author of Woman, Eating \'A striking voice in literary fiction.\' Catherine Cho, author of Inferno \'A stunning debut.\' Angela Hui, author of Takeway \'I laughed and I felt my belly tingle with sadness - I\'m New Here lingers long after it\'s been read.\' Ammar Kalia, author of A Person is a Prayer \'Like a hungover friend is telling you the wildest story you\'ve ever heard, this is a rich world of doppelgängers, money, sex, heartbreak and cityscapes.\' Jodie Matthews, author of Meet Me at the Surface   Σελίδες: 240, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0213, Διαστάσεις: 13x13cm
