Description

Gabriel Brockwell, gauchiste d'opérette et révolutionnaire de salon, est un romantique nombriliste. Dégoûté par le monde ultra capitaliste qui l'entoure, il a décidé de mourir. Mais à sa façon : en allant jusqu'au bout de la débauche, alcool, drogues et sexe à l'appui. À la recherche du plaisir sous toutes ses formes, Gabriel se perd mais renaîtra après des expériences délirantes : un dîner où il côtoie la mort de près en goûtant du fugu, poisson japonais toxique, une rencontre sexuelle avec une pieuvre et, pour finir, une orgie à l'aéroport de Berlin. Un voyage initiatique de Londres à Tokyo puis Berlin. Une critique féroce du système ultra libéral et de la société britannique / une allégorie de l'effondrement du système capitaliste. Une écriture rabelaisienne.
