Carol met Dan and John met Alan.If only that were all there was to it.But no,Will Self's twin novellas Cock and Bull are a risky trip down that obscure cul-de-sac of desire where gender isn't so much bent as snapped in two. When Carol met Dan something happened to her, she began to feel less like a woman and a little more something else altogether.And as far as poor John Bull was concerned,he may have had a knee injury,but he was certainly not 'off games'. As you look at these twins,this Cock and this Bull, nestling between the covers with that air of calm inevitability like they've known each other all their lives,remember what magnets do if you press them together the wrong way round, and open with care. . . . Will Self grew up in London.His short-story collection,'The Quantity Theory of Insanity' (see also rja2987),was one of the most highly acclaimed debuts of 1991 and was shortlisted for the 1992 John Llewellyn Rhys Prize.Author's 2nd book,and uncommon,particularly signed.
