Heart Of The Original

Award-winning satirist and sci-fi writer Steve Aylett explores our professed desire and hidden revulsion towards originality. "Force-fed with ideas until its liver explodes... this is a sizzling and hilarious manifesto where its author means every blazing word, and which makes a case for the caged-animal repetitive behaviour of our culture... Heart of the Original should be tattooed on the backs of all the limp re-imaginers currently crowding our TV screens, our multiplexes and our surviving bookshops. Probably the most astonishing thing that you will read during this otherwise lacklustre incarnation." --Alan Moore - For fans of Alan Moore, Charlie Booker, Dave Gorman and Richard Aoyade, as well as readers of Randall Munroe (What If?), Dan Ariely (Predictably Irrational), or Andrew Keen (The Internet Is Not The Answer).
