Lux the Poet

There is something about Lux. He's a thief and a liar, he is selfish and self-absorbed and hopelessly vain. But while he looks like Lana Turner and romances like a true Casanova, Lux is actually more like a bumbling, oblivious Mary Tyler Moore.Amid shouting mobs, police shields, and the hurled bricks of the '80s Brixton riots, Lux is searching for Pearl - the love of his life - whose home has been burned down by a stray petrol bomb, and who's searching for sanctuary along with her friend Nicky. Nicky is traumatized after having killed her computer - her best friend - and is herself being followed by Happy Science PLC because she knows too much about their plan to breed a superior race by implanting the sperm of genius men inside beautiful women. Lux is aided in his quest by Kalia, a castaway of Heaven attempting to get back in God's good graces by performing one million good deeds over countless lifetimes. Along the way, there's a thrash metal band, a riot party, past-lives, and KY. Lots of KY.
