Sinopsis

To hear Paul Reverb tell it, heâÇÖs fine.Sure, heâÇÖs been caught in a compromising situation by his window cleaner and failed to prevent daylight robbery, and yes, he no longer tells people he was born the dayáSergeant Pepperáwas released, as, to his horror, people no longer know what aáSergeant Pepperáis.Fine.But PauláisnâÇÖtáfine. He hates his job and heâÇÖs not fond of his friends. He sits in his dead parentsâÇÖ flat surrounded by his carefully curated, reassuringly warm vinyl, not writing the novel heâÇÖs not been writing for a decade. Paul is lonely to his bones and will likely stay that way until his dead body is found by his cleaner.Will Paul Reverb ever find happiness? Will he even recognise it if he does? And who cares if a middle-aged man finds happiness anyway?Fineáis coarse.áFineáis sad and sweet and crude and beautiful.áFineáis scurrilously funny while making your bottom lip tremble.áFineáis a rallying cry for growing old riotously, for not going gently and for not judging people by the state of their recycling bins.
