From the Publisher
'An exquisitely grimy fable which plunges us into the world of club culture, smart drugs, dumb waiters, artificial life forms and a national lottery from hell' - Independent
'The bizarrely logical world [Noon] creates with its touches of Orwellian satire and William Gibsonesque cybervision is truly original' - Q Magazine
A scarily plausible future of biorobotic advertisements and burger chain sponsored police forces' - THE FACE
'There is a diamond satirical edge to his fertile landscapes... An elegant, inventive and funny polemic against the soulless homogenisation of our country and top science fiction to boot' - SFX
'A wild hallucinatory ride through a nightmare/dream vision of the twentieth century' - LOCUS
'Noon's novel can seem like a recipe for some kind of bizarre night out: weird science, mad drugs, cool jazz, hot curries, paranoic flashes and strange girls with feathers in their hair, and they are written with such energy and audacity that one cannot help join the ride. Nymphomation is an extraordinary book. It's a novel of scientific theory and it's a love story. It's an intellectual experiment and it's a cops 'n' robbers thriller and it's just about the most exciting novel I've read for a while' - FLUX
About the Author
