So very, very true,
By
This review is from: Do What You Want (Paperback)
Ahhrrh - this made me squirm (in a good way). It's a painfully accurate portrait of the contemporary artscene/business scene of the 90s, and one I wish I'd read whilst at Goldsmiths (when it was well past its Hirstian sell-by date). Savage King writes with all the flair one expects of her: the satirical observation of her Londoners is laser-cut in its precision, yet rendered all the more memorable by the tiny drop of compassion (and much larger measure of understanding) she reserves for them. The novel fizzes along brilliantly, yet achieves a strangely sobering effect on the reader by the end.
