Feeding Time, the debut novel by Paris-based writer Adam Biles, is a story about a rebellion in an old people's home - or perhaps, more pertinently, about a rebellion of people who just happen to be old. The characters in Feeding Time are as funny, annoying, sharp, deranged, loving, and infinitely various as everyone else. They deserve dignity, and they know it - which makes it all the more imperative that something is done about the appalling conditions in Green Oaks.
Adam Biles Bücher
Adams Schaffen befasst sich mit der Erforschung der menschlichen Psyche und zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen, wobei er oft ungewöhnliche Metaphern und scharfe Sprache verwendet. Seine Texte zeichnen sich durch Tiefe und einen introspektiven Ansatz aus, der den Leser in die komplexen inneren Welten der Charaktere eintauchen lässt. Adams Werke bewegen sich gekonnt zwischen Realität und traumähnlichen Visionen und schaffen so eine einzigartige Atmosphäre voller Spannung und Mehrdeutigkeit. Sein ausgeprägter poetischer Stil und seine originelle Perspektive machen ihn zu einer bedeutenden Stimme in der zeitgenössischen Literatur.



Manor Farm has reinvented itself as the South of England's premium petting zoo. Now, instead of a working farm, humans and beasts alike are invited (for a small fee) to come and stroke, fondle, and take rides on the farm's inhabitants. But life is not a bed of roses for the animals, in spite of what their leaders may want them to believe. Elections are rigged, the community is beset by factions, and sacred mottos are being constantly updated. The Farm is descending into chaos. What's more, a mysterious 'illness' has started ripping through the animals, killing them one by one... In Beasts of England, Adam Biles honours, updates and subverts George Orwell's classic, all the while channelling the chaotic, fragmentary nature of populist politics in the Internet age into a savage farmyard satire.
