The thematic sequel to Adjective Narcissism, within God Metaphor Carey focuses his interest on religion, and the relationships between an author and a deity. The unnamed protagonist returns, recovering from Carey's attentions during the first narrative, and seeks absolution for the thoughts of a greater figure, a figure he rebels against but ultimately obeys; as though he ever had a choice.
From a student flat high above Liverpool to a hospital ward, Carey's self-obsession makes a stunning return as weird and terrible and thought-provoking as ever.
'It is a book that is difficult to describe because the story itself does not move much, but the way it is written gives you a beautifully clear picture of how the author feels about his characters,
about religion,
and about life.' - onlinebookclub.org
