Product Description

Product Description

A relocation of the Faust legend to contemporary London. The plot sweeps across the last 30 years, capturing the mood of each decade; from the Swinging Sixties to the materialism of the '80s, where the devil can run rampant and there are fates worse than death.

5.0 out of 5 stars you've got dreams, i've got demons, 1 April 2006
By radio atlantis "follow me not" (tha north of ireland) - See all my reviews
set in the early 90s the quorum is a brilliant tale based loosely on faust. it follows the paths of four friends as one night three of them are offered fame and fortune based on the pain and misery of the missing member. they accept of course, meeting every year after xmas to ensure that the fourth friend has another bad year while their stars continue to rise. fame, fortune and suffering.
the book charts their progress from meeting up at school (with an interest in performance arts) right up to their current positions - style guru, graphic novellist, tv presenter/ author and minimally employed.
author, film critic and overall eccentric (love seeing him on those c4 movie lists, but wish he'd lose that ponytail) newman's love and knowledge comic culture (more in that he was able to create his own universe a la marvel) shows, but he's a good enough author that it's never overwhelming or boring to a novice like me. more satire than horror, newman scores points off satellite tv, media magnates (possible that murdoch and fox aren't the devil in disguise, just feels that way), neo nazis and other blights on our collective conscious. he brilliantly captures the mood of the times, from the 70s right through to 'the current time'.
an excellent book, if dark. like 'battle royale' forces you to think about how you would act if put into the scenarios. some questions you hope you never have to answer...
