England's Darkness
By Stephen Barber
- Release Date: 2014-01-31
- Genre: Sci-Fi & Fantasy
Following England's future corporate and digital disintegration, and the fall of its cities, a hallucinatory conflict – inspired and propelled by the history and traces of 1970s punk rock and the spectres of Jimmy Savile and Peter Sutcliffe, the “Kings of Leeds” – erupts between the South and the North, so virulent and all-engulfing that only fragments of its memory can survive. A contemporary myth of text and image, England's Darkness explores a near-future culture on its precipice.
