The Brilliant and Forever

The Brilliant and Forever by MacNeil, Kevin. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9781846973376.

On an island like no other, populated by writers, the annual Brilliant & Forever Festival is a much anticipated event; its participants a story away from either glory or infamy. This year, three best friends - two human, one alpaca - are chosen to compete, so victory is not only about reward. This is a novel like no other; a wonderful, provocative tussle, a whip-cracking, energetic, laugh-out-loud satire on what we value in culture, and in our lives. And yet, written with exquisite warmth and empathy, its also a moving exploration of integrity, friendship and belonging. Itll split your sides and break your heart.
