How's the Pain? is an off-kilter, blackly comic novel about an
unlikely duo of a soon-to-be-retired assassin and a deadbeat young
man, from the 'slyly funny' [Sunday Times] Pascal Garnier.
'Deliciously dark ... painfully funny' New York Times Death is
Simon's business. And now the ageing vermin exterminator is
preparing to die. But he still has one last job down on the coast,
and he needs a driver. Bernard is twenty-one. He can drive and he's
never seen the sea. He can't pass up the chance to chauffeur for
Simon, whatever his mother may say. As the unlikely pair set off on
their journey, Bernard soon finds that Simon's definition of vermin
is broader than he'd expected ... Veering from the hilarious to the
horrific, this offbeat story from master stylist Pascal Garnier is
at heart an affecting study of human frailty.
