For Simon Bill''s drunken anti-hero, an abstract artist forced to haunt private views to siphon the free booze, the picture looks bleak. He has been dumped by his curator girlfriend and the only dealer left with time for him is the one who sells him drugs. But his luck changes when he''s offered a job as artist in residence at a neurological institute.

Enthralled by the characters and conditions he encounters - and infatuated by the beautiful amnesiac Emily - he sees a chance to revive his career, and love life, with a neuro-inspired show. However, all is not quite as it seems at the shiny new institute ... In this mordantly witty (modern) art farce, Simon Bill lifts the lid on the venal, novelty-seeking world of London''s contemporary art scene, while enlightening us on the fascinating workings of the human brain, particularly as it shapes our response to art The result is a delightfully dark, highly original novel that is both eye-opening and fun.
