Action and misadventure in a novel about control that is fizzing with ideas. Only people with the right genes and the wrong impulses will find its marriage of bold ideas and deplorable characters irresistible.

There is Darwinism and Fascism, nightclubs, invented languages and the dangerous bravado of youth. And there are lots of beetles. It is clever. It is distinctive. It is entertaining. We hope you are too.
