After a long night of partying, Simon Dykes, a successful British painter, wakes up to find that his girlfriend has turned into a chimpanzee. In fact, the world Simon once knew has become a planet of apes. Convinced he is still human, Simon is confined to the emergency ward of a hospital and put under the care of Dr. Zack Busner, clinical psychologist, radical psychoanalyst, maverick drug researcher, and media personality. Written with the glittering satiric edge that is Self's hallmark, Great Apes is a hilarious, disturbing, and truly unforgettable novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\nList\n\u003cp\u003eA wry, guffawing cross between \u003ci\u003eGulliver's Travels\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePlanet of the Apes\u003c\/i\u003e, as rewritten by the bastard offspring of Oliver Sacks and the Marquis de Sade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScience Fiction \u0026amp; Fantasy\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eScience Fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Grove Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":48192640483518,"sku":"0802135765-4","price":12.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/61Jzl8XjgPL.jpg?v=1784917089","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0802135765-great_apes","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
