Summary
Drawing on memoir and a life lived in pursuit of sensation, but always ignited by the flame of fiction, Petit Mal take us further into the imagination of one of the most radically original prose stylists of the past decade. Accompanied by dozens of illustrations and photographic 'evidence', the stories here inhabit worlds defined by appetite, excess and transcendence.
