Salvaging a terrible novel has never been so difficult. It all started with aliens invading after the First World War. But that was never enough. The novel became more surreal, less conventional. And publishers rejected it.
That was 20 years ago. Many years later, the writer, Daniel's Nemesis, returned to his debut fiction to see what could be done with it.
This podcast series is the story of one writer, trying to dissect his 20-year old novel, chapter by chapter, but being hindered by his former self who is there to defend it.
From bumpy beginnings, this podcast series flourishes into a surreal drama of how one should express themself. The internal conflict any writer has as to what part of their work is actually good, and what needs to go. And that fear of never being able to reproduce a quality of writing that seemed to have come out of nowhere.
