General Note
"First published by Brow Books (Australia) in 2018." -- title page verso.
Description
"Monk is living in Chinatown with her washed-up painter father when Santa Coy-possible boyfriend, potential accomplice-enters their lives, bringing with him an intoxicating hunger that soon consumes their home. So begins a heady descent into art, casino resorts, drugs, vacant swimming pools, religion, pixelated tutorial videos, and senseless violence. In bursts of fizzing, staccato and claustrophobic prose, this modern Australian take on the classic hard-boiled novel bounces you between pulverised English, elastic Cantonese and the new dialect of a digitised world. Tip over into a subterranean noir of the most electronic generation"--,Provided by publisher.
