The End of Mr Y – Scarlett Thomas ***Our Penultimate MindFuck***

Our penultimate MINDFUCK discussion takes drugs and paranoia to a whole new level of reality and even throws in some homeopathy for good measure (which technically makes the book fantasy but your`e all far to clever to believe in that nonsense).

When Ariel Manto uncovers a copy of The End of Mr. Y in a second-hand bookshop, she can`t believe her eyes. She knows enough about its author, the outlandish Victorian scientist Thomas Lumas, to know that copies are exceedingly rare. And, some say, cursed.

With Mr. Y under her arm, Ariel finds herself thrust into a thrilling adventure of love, sex, death and time-travel.
