Provocateurs Will Self and Ralph Steadman
join forces in this post-millenial meditation on the vexed relationship between psyche and place in a globalised world,bringing together for the first time the very best of their 'Psychogeography' columns for the 'Independent' (a UK newspaper).
The introduction,"Walking to New York",is both a prelude to the verbal and visual essays that make up this extraordinary collaboration and a revealing exploration of the split in Self's Jewish-American- British psyche and its relationship to the political geography of the post-9/11 world.
Ranging from the Scottish Highlands to Istanbul and from Morocco to Ohio,Will Self's engaging and disturbing vision is perfectly counterpointed by Ralph Steadman's edgy and beaitiful artwork.
