Self, Will.

The Quantity Theory of Insanity.

London, Bloomsbury, 1991. 19.8cm x 12.7cm. (8) 211 pages. Original illustrated softcover (Paperback). Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Titlepage signed by the Will Self.

Mother crops up dead but talking in Crouch End; a cellular telephone scam ends in drugged psychosis; a mental ward captivates then captures an art therapist; motorcycle messengers mystically intuit London traffic flows. These are some of the stories featured in this collection.

We enter Will Self’s wibbly-wobbly world of fun through the catflap. In this debut collection he sets out to show that tailing the reader from the front is no mere fictional gambit. It is the very stuff of theory, with a capital T.
