Surrender to a Stranger

Jeremy Reed

Who is he? What is his real name?

Is he a reincarnation, a time-traveller, or someone made from chopped up DNA on a USB stick?

Is it a novel? Is it a travelogue? Is it a diary?

In Surrender to a Stranger, British cult author Jeremy Reed offers a Burroughsesque Elizabethan drama in the super-exposure of contemporary London streets, in which our mysterious hero, Mr. W.H., along with a queer coterie of characters, soak up the ambience of sexy story telling.

A daring and provocative novel of poetic brilliance, Surrender to a Stranger is a glitter-worded Marlovian comedo-tragedy in which every sentence is written as if it has been lived.

About the Author
Jeremy Reed is the author of over fifty books of award-winning poetry, fiction and biography, and also a celebrated performer of his work with Itchy Ear as The Ginger Light. Concerned with writing from the visionary present into the near future, J. G. Ballard described Reed’s talent as “almost extraterrestrial in its brilliance.” Controversial, edge-walking and propelled by luminous imagination, he has for both his work and looks been described as “British poetry’s glam, spangly, shape-shifting answer to David Bowie.”
