The build up to the publication of Scarlett Thomas’ best novel to-date, THE END OF MR Y, is beginning. The wonderful team at Canongate - led by Francis Bickmore - have produced the most exceptionally striking book proofs I have seen in 13 years of being an agent. You can get a sense from this picture but the close-up detail is breath-taking. Scarlett describes her novel as ‘a thought experiment wrapped in a contemporary adventure novel that asks questions about thought, language, destiny and the very limits of being and time’.The End Of Mr Y is being published in the Uk in July 2007. I can hardly wait.
