About the Book

Revised edition in 1979.

A Very Tasty World

Jerry Cornelius is already an underground legend, a comic-strip hero, saint and devil in one. This is his first novel.

In it he fights out a grim vendetta in a French chateau, guns his way through the fleshy jungle of a devastated London to a laughable clue in the icy wastes of Sweden, tackles the sinister Miss Brunner and throws a vast party that lasts for months in Ladbroke Grove, and finally (in a high state of sexual ambivalence) leads a horde of happy pilgrims to their death, like lemmings in the sea, until he (or she) is the only man (or woman) left on the Earth...

Michael Moorcock at his imaginative, breathtaking best.
