The Thought Gang Summary

The Thought Gang by Tibor Fischer

France. A skint, clapped-out British philosopher meets an incompetent, freshly released, one-armed, armed robber.

Ferociously funny, Fischer combines an extravagant sense of humour with a flair for the grotesque in this heady follow-up to the Booker shortlisted Under the Frog.

The Thought Gang Reviews

Hilarious, fast-moving stuff * Independent *
Not since Woody Allen has philosophy had such a hilarious application * Guardian *
A fast-paced, off-beat thriller... It's a zany novel with depth and a fresh, almost controversial prose style that gives you the creeping impression that you have just hitched a lift with one hell of an imagination * List *
Acerbic, dashingly inventive, very funny indeed -- Christopher Hitchens * Mail on Sunday *
Fischer has a unique ability to hinge the most unlikely concepts together... charcoaling ideas to gem-hardened, irresistibly funny insights * Time Out *
