The summer of '67 ... the summer of A Whiter Shade of Pale, Mellow Yellow and Sgt. Pepper ... Peter is into pathworking meditations, backwards causation, easy sex and drugs. There is acid on the streets and darker things are on the move... Peter is an apprentice sorcerer who keeps a diary as part of an occult discipline, imposed upon him by the Black Light Lodge. That diary becomes both the story of the quest for a virgin to seduce and sacrifice and the chronicle of a demonic love. In the end he will no longer be able to distinguish a bad trip from a visitation from Hell. Satan Wants Me is about the perils and deceits of self-revelation. It is a novel for anyone who wants to know what it was like to be young in the 1960s - if one was into amphetamines, weird sex and Devil-worship. >> "He is a first-rate, startling novelist; Satan Wants Me and Exquisite Corpse, are both about the irruption of exotic intellectual movements - Satanism and surrealism - into the calm procession of English life. Both could be wonderfully funny books, but are always fascinatingly tempted by the possibility of becoming something bigger, blacker, more quietly distressing. " Philip Hensher in The Spectator >> "This is yet another playful diversion in Robert Irwin's work. Better than Stewart Home's occult tale, Come Before Christ and Murder Love, and more daring than Alison Lurie's Imaginary Friends, Satan Wants Me has plenty to keep the pages turning. " Alex Clark in The Guardian
