Vera Singh is a phenomenal sax-slinger with more high-end
footwear than Imelda Marcos. Her flatmate Manda is a trapped career writer, churning out volume after volume of the exploits of Dumara of Terra.
Their odyssey from the coastal town of St Eia, in an imaginary ruritanian state called England, carries them together and apart through the granular micro-balkanised nations of The Continent, and out into places barely-sketched and implausible.
And Soma Jones? Where does he come into this? And where is the library van than he stole from Penwith County Council? Can any of the answers be discovered in the unravelled VHS tapes of Sir Rey Queller, Reluctant Bodhissatva?
We must ask ourselves how can we distinguish between the sine, the cygnet and the signifier. Perhaps we will find the answers to this riddle amongst the greenhouses and Portakabins of
Glassgarden.
