Dave Wallis is an English writer famous for his dystopian novel Only Lovers Left Alive. In the mid-1960s, the book was planned for a film adaptation starring The Rolling Stones, but the film was never made.
A suicide epidemic is raging in Britain. Every day, more and more adults decide to end their lives. Soon, London is left in the hands of teenagers. Ernie and his gang break into sealed apartments, throw parties, and revel in the freedom. But canned food supplies are dwindling, gasoline is becoming a commodity, and the power goes out forever. Ernie's gang will have to battle the powerful Kings occupying Windsor Castle. Then, fleeing the plague, they must leave the city and try to survive in a battle with nature. Does this new world have a chance for a future?
You'll love Only Lovers Left Alive if you were deeply impressed by William Golding's dystopian novels Lord of the Flies and José Saramago's Blindness, as well as Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange.
The book is published in a paperback with flaps that can be used as bookmarks. You'll never lose your place. To enhance the tactile experience, some elements of the cover art are highlighted with a 3D varnish.
