'Funny, clever and sweet... there is a lot of Mortimer's
ridiculousness' - Sunday Times 'The much loved comic proves adept
at noirish fiction in a debut whose surrealist humour sets it
apart' - Observer 'Like Spike Milligan, Mortimer has managed to use
a novel for his distinctive comedic voice' - The Telegraph My name
is Gary. I'm a thirty-year-old legal assistant with a firm of
solicitors in London. To describe me as anonymous would be unfair
but to notice me other than in passing would be a rarity. I did
make a good connection with a girl, but that blew up in my face and
smacked my arse with a fish slice. Gary Thorn goes for a pint with
a work acquaintance called Brendan. When Brendan leaves early, Gary
meets a girl in the pub. He doesn't catch her name, but falls for
her anyway. When she suddenly disappears without saying goodbye,
all Gary has to remember her by is the book she was reading: The
Satsuma Complex. But when Brendan goes missing, Gary needs to track
down the girl he now calls Satsuma to get some answers. And so
begins Gary's quest, through the estates and pie shops of South
London, to finally bring some love and excitement into his
unremarkable life... A page-turning story with a cast of
unforgettable characters, The Satsuma Complex is the brilliantly
funny first novel by bestselling author and comedian Bob Mortimer.
