Beef

Can an affair be non-physical? Is infidelity really just about meat slapping together? Or is what goes on behind the meat actually more important? 'Beef' is a contemporary satire about love, meat, and infidelity, set in an Australia of the incredibly-near future. It is a multi-generational tale of unseen consequences, and the pressures of leaving a legacy. But most of all, it's the rollicking story of an awkward middle-aged sociophobe's attempts to be a good partner and a good father and a good son, in the context of desperately trying not to have an affair with a wildly attractive psychic... a psychic who insists they are going to end up together, like it or not, because "it's destiny".From one of Australia's most-awarded comedy writers, 'Beef' explores desire and faithfulness in a dystopian future Australia where bizarre cults thrive, where music is advertising, where psychics are out of the closet, and where meat is no longer murder. 9781365143748 1365143740 274 BOOK Australia http://books.google.com/books/content?id=-ONMDAAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&edge=curl&source=gbs_api en
