In his first story collection, Brandt presents hilarious but poignant portraits of the first post-feminist generation.
A brutal and very funny update on the male psyche. These stories are beautifully written, breath-taking in their psychological detail. They are also, ultimately, unexpectedly moving." - Emily Perkins
"Brandt accurately sums up the insecurities of the post-feminist male and nowhere more brilliantly than in 'The Jean Paul Sarte Experience' . . . Witty and evocative, this piece of surreal necrophilia alone is worth the cover price." - Metro
"Brandt's comic touch is sure and wicked . . . This is an accomplished and hugely entertaining new voice in New Zealand fiction." - Evening Post
- Winner of New Zealand Society of Authors Best First Book Awards: Hubert Church Award for Fiction 1999
