Steve Aylett

    Steve Aylett is a master of satirical science fiction and slipstream, renowned for his vibrant attacks on the manipulations of authority. His novels are rich with amusing epigrams and non-sequiturs, which only tangentially relate to the sparse plot. Aylett describes his writing process as a visual 'glob' appearing in his mind, reflecting his uniquely inventive approach.

      Jeff Lint was author of some of the strangest and most inventive satirical SF of the twentieth century. He transcended genre in classics such as Jelly Result and The Stupid Conversation, becoming a cult figure and pariah. Like his contemporary Philip K. Dick, he was blithely ahead of his time. Aylett follows Lint through his Beat days; his immersion in pulp SF, psychedelia and resentment; his disastrous scripts for Star Trek and Patton; the controversies of The Caterer comic and the scariest kids' cartoon ever aired; and his belated Hollywood success in the 1990s. It was a career haunted by death, including the undetected death of his agent, the suspicious death of his rival Herzog, and the unshakable 'Lint is dead' rumors, which persisted even after his death.
