'Heady and rambunctious ...Wake up, this book says: in its plot lines, in its hu
mour, in its philosophical underpinnings and political agenda. I'll pay it the h
ighest compliment it knows - this book is a wild thing.' New York Times Book Rev
iew Interlaken, Berne, 21st century. Several things happen after the car hits th
e rock. Tiff ceases to be pregnant. Stephen captures, like, the most wonderful b
ird - fleet, stealthy, and beautiful - a real "lifer". And the wallcreeper, the
wallcreeper says "twee". The Wallcreeper is nothing more than a portrait of marr
iage, complete with all its requisite highs and lows: drugs, dubstep, small chor
es, anal sex, eco-terrorism, birding, breeding and feeding.
