'My Idea of Fun', Will Self's brilliant first novel, tells the story of thirtysomething marketing consultant Ian Wharton, a man with the gift of eidesis, or photographic memory. Ian's idea of fun isn't quite the same as anyone else's - but who's to blame for that? Is it society, or even his childhood? Or has he fallen victim to the malign influence of his ageing anti-hero, The Fat Controller, subtly aided by the mind-numbing balms of psychiatrist Dr Gyggle? Either way, Ian Wharton is dangerous. And to understand him requires a daredevil descent into the darkest depths of extraordinary imagination .
