How
much of your personal identity is embedded in your appearance, your
physique, your flesh-and-blood physical presence?
In
his bold new work of fiction, The Body, Hanif Kureishi delves into
this profound question, and its interrelated themes of mortality,
narcissism and love.
Fascinating,
sinister and endlessly imaginative, The Body stands at the head
of a volume that also includes seven new stories by Kureishi which
explore the pains, joys and anxieties of such shared human experiences
as adolescence and parenting.
Kureishi's
first novel was the widely acclaimed, 'The Buddha of Suburbia'.
He also wrote the films, 'My Beautiful Laundrette' and 'My Son the
Fanatic'.
