Tomorrow
A would-be author has taken time out from life in the city to live in a cabin by a river and write a novel. And not just any novel. A novel that will avoid all the pitfalls and limitations of other novels, a novel that will include everything. At first these new surroundings are so idyllic that it's hard to find the motivation to get started. And then, in all its brutality, the outside world intervenes... Ranging constantly backwards and forwards in time and space, Tomorrow becomes a restless search for meaning in a precarious and elusive world.

Praise for this book
"It's as if writing the book were a sustained effort by Beckett to get somewhere new, something he achieves in the latter pages. As a result, Tomorrow lingers long in the mind." SFX
"Once again, Chris Beckett casts a cool, sci-fi eye over social pretentions -- not even artisanal bread escapes his attentions. A fractured narrative for fractured times, Tomorrow is cool without being cold; distant and devastatingly personal." Daily Mail
