Fischer's third novel. In 1993, he was selected by Granta magazine as one of the 20 best young British writers. A comic romp take on a boy-meets-girl story, narrated by an ancient Sumerian bowl that has passed through many a hand over the millennia. "The freshest, most fascinating novel I have read in years. Its author can turn chat into weapon-grade plutonium!" –Tom Robbins
