Celebrations, Alan Burns's third novel, brings the inherent
violence and oppression so apparent in Europe after the Rain into
the setting of a family-owned factory, where social hierarchies,
legal structures and humiliation keep the workers in line. By
bringing the differences between workers sharply into focus, Burns
creates a choking atmosphere of oppression and exploitation -
heightened and upended by his trademark aleatoric style, peppering
with seemingly random headlines and offcuts the text, which has not
lost any of either its relevance or its acerbic bite in the
intervening years.
