British dystopian apocalypse surrealism informed by Kafka and a lifelong heroin addiction.

One of the bleakest things I've read - yet beautiful.

Like Children of Men directed by Lars Von Trier.

For fans of JG Ballard, and "The Invention of Morel" by Adolfo Bioy Casares, and the film influenced by it, "Last Year At Marienbad", directed by Alain Robbe-Grillet.
