My first novel, Pangamonium is being launched on Friday. By definition it is literary fiction as I wrote it for a PhD in Creative Writing. But it is far more playful than much literary fiction and refuses to take itself seriously.
Synopsis: Pangamonium is a comic novel that parodies travel adventure stories and satirises globalisation. It is a tongue-in-cheek adventure romp, a mock epic. Francis is a journalist looking for a big story in the tiny kingdom of Panga. He finds himself attempting to liberate a bunch of child slaves making sex toys for the West. Toss in an African pilgrim named Easter on a quest to find his grandfather's grave filled with pirate gold, a military regime oppressing the citizens of Panga, and a Bollywood romance - pandemonium ensues.
It will be available as a paperback in Australia and an ebook elsewhere.
