This one’s a gem. Take a journey around post-industrial Britain in the company of Robinson (an unseen reclusive academic partial to sexual encounters on the internet, good coffee and Marks and Spencer lunches) and the unamed narrator as they explore the way in which globalisation and the shift to the information economy has altered the landscape. It’s very funny and very acutely observed – like Laurie Anderson meets Antonio Negri on the set of a 1950s information film about nuclear power.
