In the near future, Tristram Foxe and his wife, Beatrice-Joanna, live in their skyscraper world where population control measures sanctioned by the government glorify homosexuality. Eventually, their world is transformed into a chaos of cannibalistic dinning-clubs, fantastic fertility rituals, and wars without anger. The novel maintains Burgess's typically fine balance between grim visions of future life and rich satirical humor.

The novelist Jay Parini brings his narrative skills to a life of William Faulkner (1897-1962) and an exhaustive discussion of his work. Emphasizing Faulkner's artistry, and zeroing in on the little-discussed homoerotic undercurrent in some of his fiction, Parini provides an assessment of Faulkner that takes into account both his own admiration for the writer and the opinions of critics over the years.
