James Hawes is the author of six novels, including White Powder, Green Light and Speak for England. He lives in Cardiff.
Hawes has developed into a prolifically inventive and increasingly subtle satirist. Though the current novel features all his regular trademarks - black humour, sharp dialogue and a plot that goes off with all guns blazing in every respect - one senses that this book is also Hawes's homage to one of the great academic satires of the last century, Malcolm Bradbury's The History Man * Guardian * Very witty... Both laddish and slyly intelligent, Hawes has his cake and eats it * Daily Telegraph * Terrific black satire -- Toby Clements * Daily Telegraph * Hawes scatters pellets of satirical wit on the twitchy paranoia of the ageing liberal * Arena *
