'54
W. Ming

From the authors of the bizarre and extraordinary Q comes this equally bizarre and powerful thriller about the Cold War.The year is 1954. The world is divided into East and West. In Naples, Lucky Luciano is busy fixing horse-races and overseeing the creation of the global heroin trade. In Hollywood, members of Her Majesty’s Secret Service have a bizarre and dangerous mission for Cary Grant. And in Bologna, a lovelorn young barman is about to embark on a painful odyssey in search of his missing father. Bringing all of these strands and more together is a missing television set, a McGuffin Electric, an appliance with a very special secret. At once a political thriller and a touching romance, 54 features appearances by Alfred Hitchcock, Marshal Tito and the Emperor of Indochina. Wu Ming — the collective formerly known as Luther Blissett — have produced another tour-de-force which paints a dazzling picture of a past age while slyly commenting on our own.
