Adam Biles

    Adam se ve své tvorbě zaměřuje na zkoumání lidské psychiky a vztahů, často s využitím neotřelých metafor a pronikavého jazyka. Jeho texty se vyznačují hloubkou a introspektivním přístupem, který čtenáře vtahuje do složitých vnitřních světů postav. Adamova díla oscilují mezi realitou a snovými vizemi, čímž vytvářejí jedinečnou atmosféru plnou napětí a nejednoznačnosti. Jeho poetický styl a originální perspektiva z něj činí významného současného literárního hlasatele.

    Feeding Time
    • 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.

    • 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.
