The polarizing literary debut by Scottish author Ian Banks, The Wasp Factory is the bizarre, imaginative, disturbing, and darkly comic look into the mind of a child psychopath.Meet Frank Cauldhame. Just sixteen, and unconventional to say the least:
Two years after I killed Blyth I murdered my young brother Paul, for quite different and more fundamental reasons than I''d disposed of Blyth, and then a year after that I did for my young cousin Esmerelda, more or less on a whim.
That''s my score to date. Three. I haven''t killed anybody for years, and don''t intend to ever again.
It was just a stage I was going through.
