Thomas drifts into surreal, boozy coming-of-age territory with a novella that feels equal parts dream, misadventure, and sly comedy. Young Samuel Bennett leaves his quiet Welsh life for London, only to tumble through a series of strange encounters—artists, eccentrics, shady characters, and odd jobs that never quite go to plan. The plot wanders, but that’s the charm: it’s a loosely stitched odyssey powered by Thomas’s lush language, humour, and eye for the absurd. A beautifully offbeat, slightly chaotic slice of literary wanderlust.
