The New Policeman |
What is the price of time? This is JJ's quest - to buy some time for his mother as her birthday present. This is a teasing, playful novel Playful, because it is actually built round Irish dance tunes, reproduced between each chapter, whose titles form a skeleton of the plot - introducing some deliciously surreal touches. Just who is the new policeman? Does JJ find his mother's present? And what does it cost him? Find out yourself.
