The Forbidden Line, the November release from Galley Beggar Press, is a monster. It's fat, uncompromising and gloriously eccentric. Which is as it should be - since it's a retelling of Don Quixote combined with a recreation of the Peasant's Revolt; a gleeful hybrid of science, pseudo-science, absurd theory and profound, ingenious philosophy. Don and Is career around Essex and London, tilting at windmills, abusing petrol station assistants, fighting with each other and everyone around them. The wildest book to be released on Cervantes' 400th anniversary.
