3AM magazine is THE online venue for subversive, experimental literature. Here editor Steve Finbow gets to grip with Bukkakeworld in this double-vision feature.
Mike Philbin assaults his readers with brutal and sexual imagery yet assuages them with thoughts of kittens and butterflies on a summer’s day. What the reader can never do is take for granted what is going to happen next. Bukkakeworld is a satirical novel in the line of Rabelais, Swift, and De Sade; an open attack on corporations and an analysis of vocational alienation shot through with a messy, spunked-up narrative.

first 5 star Amazon.co.uk review
it happened, there's now a 5 star of Bukkakeworld on Amazon.co.uk
I bought this recently not really knowing what to expect, and then got immediately sucked in and finished it in a couple of sittings. It's a very unusual book that reminded me in places of Chuck Palahniuk, in others of J.G. Ballard, but is still entirely its own thing with its own voice. Weird and dark, but if you like that sort of thing (as I do!) then its definitely worth getting.
excellent, somebody got it.
