Description

Maxim Arturovitch Pyatnitski, that charming but despicable mythomaniac who first appeared in Byzantium Endures (PM Press, 2012, available from Turnaround), is back.

Having fled Bolshevik Russia in late 1919, Pyat's progress is a series of leaps from crisis to crisis, as he begins affairs with a Baroness and a Greek prostitute while undertaking schemes to build flying machines in Europe and the United States.

His devotion to flamboyantly racist, particularly anti-Semitic doctrines - like his devotion to cocaine - remains unabated.

Pyat remains one of literature's great anti-heroes.
