This review is from: Interface (U.K.) (T City Trilogy, Book 1) (Hardcover)

These three novels are set in a sprawling vertical conurbation named T-City, developed from Tyneside in the the North of England (to a local this can only seem ironic!). They are mainly a satire on the sixties, featuring social innovations like 'flicker knickers' and an ubiquitous building material called Stahlex. But the satire is indirect, and the novels are complicated slices through the lives of the inhabitants' sometimes mundance existences. Interesting and rather good, I wish he had written more.
