The Queen is Dead

A chance letter sparks off an hilariously doomed transatlantic literary romance involving Marines, glory holes, cats, intellectuals, transsexuals and a bizarre love-triangle rivalry with gay serial-killer and Gianni Versace's assassin Andrew Cunanan.

If you believe the old adage that something is funny because it's true and true because it's funny, 'The Queen is Dead' will kill you. Or at least make you laugh and cry until you wish that you'd been lied to instead.

Provocative, revealing, startling and scandalously funny, 'The Queen is Dead' is bound to be one of the most talked about books of the year.
