I had never heard of Aidan Higgins and saw this book a few years ago. I will admit I picked it up the upon first sight because it had a similar cover motif as Wittgenstein's Mistress. Higgins is a fine Irish author. The Heir to Joyce's language but with Beckett's sensibilities. Higgins uses florid prose to paint pictures of the modern world that range from stunningly beautiful to terrifying. Definitely worth checking out.
