WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM ANDREW O’HAGAN John Self is a consumer extraordinaire. Rolling between London and New York he closes movie deals and spends feverishly, all the while grabbing everything he can to sate his massive appetites: alcohol, tobacco, pills, pornography and mountains of junk food. But John’s excesses haven’t gone un-noted.

Menaced by a phone stalker, his high-wire, hoggish lifestyle is about to bring him face-to-face with the secret of his success. ‘Turbo-charged with savage humour from first to last page… A voice that mesmerised a generation’ Guardian
