A blistering, brilliant novel from the Booker-shortlisted author, elegantly reflecting his Geoffrey Faber Memorial award-winning story collection The Quantity Theory of Insanity
In The Quantity Theory of Morality, Will Self's unconventional new novel, his pen remains dipped in vitriol and elegance as ever. In this dark yet hilariously satirical state-of-an-era novel, Self's target is a collective morality that is nothing more or less than pure sociability. His middle-class, middle-English characters appear trapped in a timeless go-round of polite chitchat in dinner parties that refract like a hall of mirrors as the novel progresses, until one day someone says something to the effect of, This way to the gas chamber, please, ladies and gentlemen. The Quantity Theory of Morality finally solves the equation of time and money that dominates our lives, in a way that is simultaneously deranging, destabilizing, and hilarious.
With recurringif defeatedappearances from now-canonical characters like Zack Busner, the repetition of each chapter, or Proposition shows Will Self to be both a master of satire and slapstick humor and a sublime and thoughtful critic of the alienation of modern life. With The Quantity Theory of Morality, Self provides the sequel to his award-winning debut of 34 years ago: The Quantity Theory of Insanity. That literary psycho-surgery proved there wasn't enough sanity go aroundnow he's established what many of us fear to be the absolute truth: there isn't enough good to go around, either.
