Toeing the line between humorous adventure and dystopian nightmare, Copper Hollow is a fun yet dark read. This novel is like if the animated movie Robots was set in the world of Peaky Blinders.
In the vast city of Cinderbury, workers don’t get the chance of an afterlife, instead they must continue on as automatons working endlessly for greedy masters. The Wright family have spent lifetimes trying to get rights for the robotic-dead, and now it is Amelia’s turn at the helm.
With the help of her robotic great-great-great grandfather and her street savvy best friend, she must look after the souls under the care of the Wright Orphanage — even when they bring trouble to her door. As she faces off against dangerous nosy neighbours and street thugs, she finds some comfort in the backing of a regrettably handsome philanthropist. However, in the smog chocked city of Cinderbury, things are rarely as they seem.

This book examines Gore Vidal’s lifelong engagement with the ancient world. Incorporating material from his novels, essays, screenplays and plays, it argues that his interaction with antiquity was central to the way in which he viewed himself, his writing, and his world. Divided between the three primary subjects of his writing – sex, politics, and religion – this book traces the lengthy dialogue between Vidal and antiquity over the course of his sixty-year career.
The author analyses Vidal’s portrayals of the ancient past in novels such as Julian (1964), Creation (1981) and Live from Golgotha (1992). He also shows how classical literature inspired Vidal’s other fiction, such as The City and the Pillar (1948), Myra Breckinridge (1968), and his Narratives of Empire (1967–2000) novels. Beyond his fiction, the author examines the ways in which antiquity influenced Vidal’s careers as a playwright, an essayist and a satirist, and evaluates the influence of classical authors and their works upon him.
