A review by andrewmerritt00
Man-Eating Typewriter by Richard Milward

4.0

I’ve never been a fan of the descriptive platitude “like nothing I’ve ever read before,” but I’m not sure what else to say about a novel written almost entirely in Polari, a slang I’m unlikely to ever encounter again. While it dragged at times, simply put, Man-Eating Typewriter is a fun and darkly funny (and also just plain dark) romp through late 60’s London that will keep you engaged from start to finish. Highly recommend
