WATER: A Novel/Dark/Funny Romance

written and illustrated by Jasper Joffe

 

Available now on Amazon UK and USA:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AKCEWZM/

 

'A sort of absurdist, amoral fable ... There is something exquisitely tragic about Water's life, a repetitive parade of posh restaurants, press views and disinterested flings. Ultimately, he's a tad boring - not something you could say about the novel he stars in.'
- Richard Godwin, Literary Review
