He is the epitome of the true Renaissance man. A hero of mine." -- Billy Connolly, "[A] laugh-out-loud, darkly intelligent debut...a thought-provoking skewering of modern art by a knowledgeable writer and an inescapably doomed but appealing hero." -- Publishers Weekly, "[The Late Hector Kipling] is a rollicking, no-corpsesbarred black comedy...the art-world milieu is deftly handled, and there's a splendidly mean and morbid wit at play....

Synopsis
A wickedly funny black comedy from actor Thewlis, this work features a man whose midlife crisis leads him to acts of not-so-quiet desperation, supreme idiocy--and murder., Hector Kipling is a famous artist. But Hector is not as famous as his best friend, Lenny Snook. And as they are standing in the Tate Gallery one afternoon, Hector's life begins to unravel. For a painter, this existential crisis is the place from which great art is born. If the painter happens to be a forty-three-year-old man with a girlfriend away from home, it is the recipe for disaster. Soon it's all Hector can do to keep it together -- between his therapist who shows up drunk at a party and introduces herself to his parents, an irresistible young female poet with a terrifying taste for S&M, and a deranged stalker with an oil-and-canvas-inspired vendetta, just trying to cope is enough to make a man cry. As the events in his life threaten to drive him toward full-blown dementia, Hector finds himself in a bizarre and murderous pursuit of a man threatening to kill him in return, spiraling into a hysterically surreal Hitchcocklike thriller -- the story of how a man can become desperate enough to shoot his way out of a midlife crisis. At turns warm, witty, and joyfully absurd, David Thewlis's wicked comedy marks the debut of a savagely funny and observant literary talent.
