BOOK OF THE MONTH Shaw, a middle-aged man, has got himself a room in a shared house in a shabby area of southwest London in a sinister version of modern Britain, broke, divided and paranoid. He’s got a job — at least, he thinks it’s a job, running errands for a man who has self-published a book called Journeys of Our Genes. Shaw’s even got a lover, though he doesn’t quite know what to do with her, which probably explains why Victoria is leaving town for her dead mother’s house in Shropshire.
