"C" follows the short, intense life of Serge Carrefax, a man who - as his name suggests - surges into the electric modernity of the early twentieth century, transfixed by the technologies that will obliterate him. Born to the sound of one of the very earliest experimental wireless stations, Serge finds himself steeped in a weird world of transmissions, whose very air seems filled with cryptic and poetic signals of all kinds. When personal loss strikes him in his adolescence, this world takes on a darker and more morbid aspect. What follows is a stunning tour de force in which the eerily idyllic settings of pre-war Europe give way to the exhilarating flight-paths of the frontline aeroplane radio operator, then the prison camps of Germany, the drug-fuelled London of the roaring twenties and, finally, the ancient tombs of Egypt.
作者简介汤姆•麦卡锡（1969—），英国作家、概念艺术家。2005年出版小说《残留记忆》后一跃成为当代英国小说界最重要、最令人期待的原创作家之一，被誉为“后现代文学的继承人”。同时，作为国际灵航协会（International Necronautical Society，简称INS）的协作创始人，麦卡锡始终关注艺术和社会中的非本真性，以及重复或复制的首要性和原创性，并一再将这两个命题运用到他的小说中。他的写作手法精巧、复杂，充满实验性和先锋性，旨在打破传统的文字美学，却丝毫无损阅读的乐趣。
