Faust Among Equals (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

Five hundred thousand spectral construction workers laboured night and day to bring into being the most sensational leisure facility in the history of Time and Space. And all because one man dared to dream the impossible nightmare.
The man in question sat in the window of the site office, looking out over the muddy shambles and trying to discern any resemblance, however slight, to the vision of unalloyed nastiness he could see in his mind’s eye. It wasn’t easy.
Take, for example, the helter-skelter. This took the form of a seventy-foot-high hourglass, on which was seated a stomach-churning bird-headed demon, its feet improbably thrust into two wine-jars, meditatively nibbling on the leg of a woman taken in adultery. On paper, it had looked fine. Translated into three dimensions, it was quite another sort of nightmare.
The basic structure hadn’t been a problem; you’ve got your reinforced steel joists, your basic chipboard panels, your sixty-by-thirty sheets of galvanised. You bung those in with a few girders braced crosswise for rigidity, everything fine so far.
