Totally, Totally Global

The latest entry in Nicholas Bate's novel is here. An excerpt:

Sally is back. Nobody dares ask her where she has been the last couple of business days as she is then unlikely to help them with the economy to business class up-grade work-around for trans-Atlantic flights. She had an epiphany this morning in her local Starbucks on discovering that her zero-cal, syrup and milk free ambient-temperature super-short latte was actually called a doppio espresso and is delighted with its zen-like simplicity. So much so she has decided to go super-simple for everything. Consumerism is out. Boyfriends are out. And clubbing, too. At least until the week-end. Or maybe just Thursday.
