First in the acclaimed Squire Quartet-from the author of Supertoys Last All Summer Long, the basis for the movie A.I.: Artificial Intelligence.
Thomas C. Squire, creator of the hit documentary series Frankenstein Among the Arts, one-time secret agent and founder of the Society for Popular aesthetics, is attending an international media symposium in Sicily. It is here that he becomes involved with lovely, but calculating Selina Ajdina. Alongside the drama of the conference is the story of Squire's private life-the tale of his infidelity, the horrifying circumstances surrounding his father's death, and the threatened future of his ancestral home in England.
