<p><b>A <i>Talented Mr Ripley </i>for contemporary Berlin: a twisting, sensual, heady and razor-sharp exploration of creativity, fame, desire and the divided self</b><br><br><b>'Riotous and raunchy ... </b><b>a salacious romp of breathtaking self-invention and spectacular self-destruction</b><b>' <i>Service95</i></b><br><br><b>'The book that's been missing from my reading habits: classically glamourous, timelessly seductive' Torrey Peters</b><br><b><br>'An erotic spectacular of self-creation and spiralling disintegration' Olivia Laing</b><br>____________________________________________________<br><br>Charli has finished art school and now has no idea what to do with her life. She's broke, disillusioned and her flatmates hate her. One night at a bar in Soho, however, everything changes when she first encounters the charismatic musician Alexander Geist. Androgynous, glamorously handsome, mysterious and just a little sinister, he feels something like a soul mate; and so when he heads off to Berlin, Charli follows. <br><br>There, at the centre of the city's febrile party scene, Charli and Alexander embark on their great project: to make Alexander into the biggest star since David Bowie. But Alexander is elusive, mercurial; and Charli is in over her head before she realises just how self-destructive her life has become under his spell.<br><br>A story of obsession and excess, doppelgängers and disassociation, fame and the terrible things we do to feel loved, <i>Lean Cat, Savage Cat</i> is an unforgettable novel from one of the most exciting writers at work today.</p>
