The Beginning of the End by Ian Parkinson
Requirements: AZW3, ePUB Reader, 510 Kb
Overview: Whilst in Thailand to marry a sex worker he met through a marriage agency website, Raymond, a lonely industrial designer who has just lost his job designing door bells at Siemens, is informed that his father’s body has been discovered in an isolated villa on the Belgian coast.
Back in Belgium, Joy, Raymond’s new wife, sets about making a career in the Dutch and German porn industries, while Raymond moves into the villa with the intention of renovating the property so that he and his wife can live by the sea.
But an addiction to painkillers and a growing depression leave Raymond too indifferent to do anything but watch television and go to his favourite supermarket.
Alone once again, and ignoring his wife’s attempts to contact him, Raymond learns that the villa is one amongst many threatened by the destructive vagaries of the sea all along a western stretch of the coast. Half-drugged and more than occasionally half drunk, Raymond wanders from room to room in his pyjamas, sitting at the window for days on end as the shifting dunes bury the perimeter wall and the sea laps at the patio doors, unaware that he will never see his wife again.
