Overview
Disgusting and brilliant – should earn Meades justifiable comparison to Joyce, Celine, Pynchon Paul Spike, Vogue.At first glance, this 1993 masterpiece is a post-war family saga set in and around the city of Portsmouth. This doesnt come close to communicating the scabrous magnificence of Meadess creation. Pompey is an obscene, suppurating vision of an England in terminal decline.The story begins with Guy Vallender, a fireworks manufacturer from Portsmouth, who has four children by different four different women. Theres poor Eddie, a feeble geek with a gift for healing; Mad Bantu, the son of a black prostitute, who was hopelessly damaged in the womb by an attempted abortion; Bonnie, who is born beautiful but becomes a junkie and a porn star; and finally Jean-Marie, a leather-wearing gay gerontophiliac conceived on a one-night stand in Belgium.The narrator is Jonathan Meades, cousin to poor Eddie and Bonnie, who tells the story of how their strange and poisonous destinies intersect. And although there is no richer stew of perversity, voyeurism, corruption, religious extremism and curdled celebrity in all of English literature, there is also an underlying compassion and jet-black humour which makes Pompey an important and strangely satisfying work of art. Prepare to enter the English novels darkest ride...
