Description
Book SynopsisMilton Pitt leads an uneventful life, with a dull job and a secret longing for adventure. One morning, after he is hit by a speeding car, he suffers an out-of-body experience and awakens back in his bedroom. Everything is just the same - that is, except for the bloody footprints leading to the chimney... Is this his chance to lead a better life? Was it just a dream? Or is he simply dead? In this richly inventive and humorous novella, Edward Vass brings the themes of Dante's Divine Comedy 700 years into the future.
Trade Review'Smart, funny, and an excellent writer, Edward Vass is the ideal guide for a journey into the beyond' —Dr. Owen Clayton, Senior Lecturer in English Literature, University of Lincoln; 'Edward Vass masterfully interweaves the mundane and the insane, the scatological and the eschatological, the ludicrous and the bathetic' —Jennifer Rushworth, Lecturer in Comparative Literature at University College London and author of books on Dante and Petrarch
