Uncle Arnie on Fire - E-book - ePub

In the future no-one needs to die, but it would be great for the economy if they did. Funerals are hot pink. Clouds are nothing but unused advertising space. The government encourages state-sponsored suicide. And Uncle Arnie is rapidly approaching his two hundredth birthday. Mel and her cousins have spent the last two hundred years sucking up to their elderly uncle, but will the old man's death really be the release they expect? Uncle Arnie on Fire is delicious like a nasty liqueur and bitter like dark chocolate.
It swings from philosophical to scatalogical with wild abandon and shines a light on the things that matter - family, ageing, relationships, and death.
