1 Self, Will Great Apes
Penguin 1998 0-14-026800-6 / 9780140268003 Paperback 
Paperback in good condition, some shelf dust to cover. 1998 Penguin edition. ladylisabooks website.Like Kafka's Gregor Samsa, London artist Simon Dykes has suffered a surprising transformation?he's become a chimpanzee. So has everyone else around him, but he doesn't realize it. Dumped in a mental hospital for his delusional thinking, Simon comes under the care of Dr. Busner (an alpha male) and tries to understand the strange new world around him. Chimpanzees are indeedthe ascendant primates; humans are a fading offshoot that have simply failed to learn how to sign or vocalize properly. As one might expect from Selfthis situation provides ample opportunity for a lacerating send-up of contemporary human society, and Self can be very funny. But as a whole it doesn't really work. The alternative chimp society is not persuasive, and Self istoo busy with bad-boy langauge and obsessive sex to get at deeper issues.Entertainment Weekly - ... the conceit gets a bit old. Look what a Great Author I am, Self seems to be telegraphing on every page. Ultimately, he has all the entertainment power of a show-off.
