Inhaltsangabe

The Book of Dave is based around the rants of Dave Rudman, a disgruntled East End taxi driver, who writes his woes down and buries them ... only to have them discovered 500 years later and used as the sacred text for a religion that has taken hold in the flooded remnants of London.

Will Self's big bold book dares to take on the grand themes in the grand manner. It is at once a profound meditation upon the nature of received religion; a love story; a caustic satire of contemporary urban life and a historical detective story set in the far future.
