Biographical note
Russell Hoban is the author of many extraordinary novels including THE LION OF BOAZ-JACHIN AND JACHIN-BOAZ, TURTLE DIARY, PILGERMANN, KLEINZEIT and most recently, ANGELICA'S GROTTO, all available from Bloomsbury. He has also written some classic books for children. He lives in London.
The first time Peter Diggs saw Amaryllis she was at a bus stop where the street sign said Balsamic, although there was nothing vinegary about the place. The bus was unthinkably tall, made of yellow, orange and pink rice paper, lit from within like a Japanese lantern. That was a dream, but where this romance goes as the dream begins to intersect reality is nothing that a reader can be prepared for. 'Trust me, I'm a weirdo,' says Amaryllis as she and Peter embark on their nocturnal experimentation, which leaves no one, on quite the same footing with reality.

Written by the author of "Her Name Was Lola", this is a romantic, quirky and evocative novel.
'Hoban writes with such wide-eyed wonder as to suggest that keeping the beautiful mysteries of the world intact is more important than solving them' METRO
A dazzling new novel by one of the most original writers of the twentieth century. KLEINZEIT and PILGERMANN published alongside AMARYLLIS. RIDDLEY WALKER to follow in 2002. 'Tantalising, fresh and inventive Hoban writes about grown-up love with an extraordinarily unsentimental yearning' LITERARY REVIEW
