In this dark yet hilariously satirical “state-of-an-era novel,” Self’s target is a collective morality that is nothing more or less than pure sociability. His middle-class, middle-English characters appear trapped in a timeless go-round of polite chitchat in dinner parties that refract like a hall of mirrors as the novel progresses, until one day someone says something to the effect of, “This way to the gas chamber, please, ladies and gentlemen.”

Filosofia, religione e la strada per la pace nel mondo. C'è un po' di tutto in questo spregiudicato romanzo di Marco Lugli. Sette domande per Dio è un viaggio esilarante dentro un Bed & Breakfast che diventa improvvisamente il centro dell'universo quando Dio si manifesta concretamente agli uomini e si dichiara disponibile a rispondere a sette loro domande, ma è anche una satira bruciante della società moderna strangolata dalle catene del politicamente corretto. «Vi concedo di farmi sette domande.

The best thing about being a prostitute is you don't have to stay after sex. At the age of 10, I dreamt of Hansel and Gretel, chocolate houses, chocolate-hearted people, and sometimes chocolate squares melting in my mouth. By the age of 12, I was being used to fund my mother’s drug addiction. We lived in squats, filled with dirty mattresses and syringes. However in one of the darkest nights of my soul, I heard a kind, calm, inner-mind-voice say: "Who you are becoming, is not who you are."

As he did in the award-winning One Part Woman, in his newest novel, The Story of a Goat, Perumal Murugan explores a side of India that is rarely considered in the West: the rural lives of the country’s farming community.
