The Marketing Coverleaf

Take one bastard, plant in him the idea that he’s a Greek hero, add the devil as his twin and guide to his history, garnish with a handful of women(six in total), and then simmer for just over two hundred pages at fever pitch as he tries to unravel the life which has him now standing on a window ledge contemplating gravity; take out slowly and admire the autobiography of a bastard.

Indy is the man in question, and his life is literally on the brink. His parents think he’s a complete mess, his relatives refer to him as a loafer, and the women in his life now call him a bastard. And Indy? He doesn’t have a clue what he is. To the world he’s an Indian transplanted into the UK. He’s agreed to an arranged marriage, has fallen in love with an English colleague, and managed to become embroiled with a pair of Spanish twins. Into this exotic eclectic mix pops the ghost of his grandmother offering advice and a surreal shoulder, and after her comes the devil, to remind him how to hold the attention of an audience; no wonder Indy doesn’t know which side his life is buttered on.

This is Indy’s story, the autobiography of a bastard, and it’s also the story of the women in his life as they all try and make sense of what it is to be alive in a time of unlove.
