'The Unbearable Lightness of Being in Aberystwyth' in the 'Aberystwyth Noir' series by Malcolm Pryce delves into the dark underbelly of Aberystwyth, following the adventures of the intrepid private eye, Louie Knight. In this installment, Louie is tasked with solving a one-hundred-year-old mystery involving a man with a monkey, an amnesiac organ grinder, and the disappearance of his comatose girlfriend, Myfanwy. The plot takes readers on a journey through the eccentric and vividly imagined world of Aberystwyth, filled with larger-than-life characters and unique storylines that blend humor with darkness.
Pryce's writing style in this book is characterized by deadpan humor, effective world-building, and the ability to create a bizarre yet strangely reflective world that mirrors our own. The narrative weaves together elements of pastiche, parody, and thought-provoking philosophical musings, making the reader ponder on the darker aspects of the fictional Aberystwyth while being entertained by the quirky and likable characters that populate the series.
