Sinopse
Hector Kipling is an artist: an artist with loving parents, a beautiful girlfriend, dependable mates, good health, and talent in abundance. Or at least, more talent than most, and certainly more than his friend Kirk - who paints cutlery - if not quite as much as their mutual friend Lenny. But when things begin to unravel, it doesn´t take long for Hector´s charmed world to fall completely and irreparably apart. Indeed, it´s amazing just how quickly a life can disintegrate. One minute, you´re fine and focussed on the future, the next you´re sobbing in front of an Edvard Munch painting in the permanent collection, with no discernible way forward. From settees to stalkers, con-men to corpses, selfportraits to S&M, The Late Hector Kipling is a warm and witty novel about the not-so-warm and witty world in which we live. Tracing Hector Kipling´s journey from the dizzy heights of solo shows to a deep hole in the floor of the Tate Modern, it´s an irreverent and entertaining exploration of life, death, art, and everything in.
