Arty is huge. Ginormous. Morbidly and grossly obese, he’s
in need of a gastric bypass to save his life. At over 400 kilos, he’s the
world’s fattest teenager.
Arty is also being followed by a reality TV crew. Will he
lose the kilos needed to have the op? Will he survive to eat another cream
puff? Will Louise, his Pathways-to-Work of?cer, transform his life in ways he
never imagined?
Unapologetically satiric,
Beached is also the
moving story of a man imprisoned in his own body. It lays bare the mercenary
nature of reality TV, and turns the microscope on society’s insatiable appetite
for human misery.
