Gone Tomorrow

Présentation de l'éditeur Gone Tomorrow is a passionate chronicle of death and obsession told before the full onslaught of AIDS. A disfigured, jaded young actor narrates the story of a seductive and monstrous film director who has convened his international cast and crew in Colombia, where a serial killer is on the loose. The making of his film of vast, if vague, ambition, brings together a group of people whose implosive relationship - fired by narcissism, sex, alcohol and drugs - are fiercely dissected by the narrator against an ominous backdrop of cultural dissolution, social anarchy and political violence. Revue de presse ?Unlike the majority of pointedly AIDS-era novels, Gone Tomorrow is neither an amoral nostalgia fest nor a thinly concealed wake-up call hyping the religion of sobriety. It?s a philosophical work devised by a writer who?s both too intelligent to buy into the popular notion that a successful future requires the compromise of collective decision and too moral to accept bitterness as the consequence of an adventurous life? Dennis Cooper, LA Weekly ?Horribly refreshing, like an ice-cold glass of acid on a sweltering summer day... Indiana writes with an art critic?s eye for detail and a poet?s ear for language? Philadelphia Inquirer Biographie de l'auteur Gary Indiana is the author of Gone Tomorrow, Horse Crazy and Rent Boy, which is also available from Serpent's Tail. He lives in New York.
