From the internationally acclaimed, Man Booker-shortlisted Nicola Barker comes a new novel, a post-post apocalyptic story that overflows with pure creative talent.
Imagine a perfect world where everything is known, where everything is open, where there can be no doubt, no hatred, no poverty, no greed.
Imagine a System which both nurtures and protects.
A Community which nourishes and sustains.
An infinite world.
A world without sickness, without death.
A world without God.
A world without fear.
Could you.
.
.
might you be happy there?
H(A)PPY is a post-post apocalyptic Alice in Wonderland, a story which tells itself and then consumes itself.
It's a place where language glows, where words buzz and sparkle and finally implode.
It's a novel which twists and writhes with all the terrifying precision of a tiny fish in an Escher lithograph ?
a book where the mere telling of a story is the end of certainty.
