Recycling Jimmy ReviewA lot goes through your mind when you're precariously dangling upside down from a bridge - blood mostly, but also plenty of vivid insights. You might suddenly, by way of example, realize that your fiancé wasn't all that to begin with and that your best friend is really pretty annoying, so who cares if you caught the two of them sharing a morning-after kiss, and why in the world did you ever set about trying to kill yourself over the whole mess. That's just where Jimmy Gee finds himself, though, as this novel opens. While he doesn't walk away from the situation unscathed - well, actually, he does walk away, just not very far - this brush with death eventually serves as the impetus for a grand scheme that's possibly just crazy enough to work.
While recovering in the hospital, Jimmy strikes up a rather unusual friendship with one of the interns, a bloke named Kevin who can't resist playing rather sick practical jokes on patients waking up in the suicide ward, including Jimmy. A practical joker of some skill himself, Jimmy responds in kind, and a bond is formed. With nowhere else to go when he is finally released from the hospital, Jimmy moves into his new best bud's apartment and it is there - during one of their senseless brainstorm sessions - that the idea for "Quitters" is born. As Jimmy knows from experience, some people are just too timid or downright clumsy to do themselves in properly. After all, if every suicidal person did the job right the first time, there would be no need for suicide wards. Many of these individuals will just keep trying until they manage to kick the bucket properly, so what would be wrong with helping them along a bit? And if you can profit from the deal, so much the better.
Here's the deal. "Quitters" (i.e., Jimmy and Kevin) will offer assistance to anyone seriously determined to commit suicide, as long as the suicide is of a spectacular nature. Each such suicide will be filmed and eventually included on a DVD Jimmy and Kevin intend to release. Knowing full well that there are plenty of weirdoes in the world who would pay good money to watch such a morbid video, the guys expect DVD sales to earn them a right good income. Things go surprisingly well - at first - but the guys can only dance around the Kevorkian Curse for so long before things take a rather nasty turn.
Recycling Jimmy is black comedy at its best - ludicrous yet believable, and consistently funny throughout (which is not to say there isn't a serious moment here or there along the way). Jimmy's first two encounters with a potential love interest are beyond memorable, and the setting for their first official date is uniquely surreal to say the least. The one-upmanship of Jimmy's and Kevin's friendship also offers the reader a plethora of humorous moments, although I must say the increasingly extreme and seemingly non-stop pranks the two play on each other eventually grew a tad tiresome for me. Even the suicides are capable of drawing laughs, especially one in particular that puts one of Kevin's Loony Tunes-inspired theories to the test once and for all.And if you think you know how everything is going to play out in the end, think again - Tilley lays down a pretty mean literary land mine or two along the way.
We all know that the wittiest of writers in the world today tend to hail from Britain, and Andy Tilley would certainly seem to be taking some mighty self-assured baby steps in the sizable shoes of such brilliant comic writers as Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett. This is only his first novel, but his unique voice and acerbically effective brand of humor bespeak a wealth of potential. I for one will be most anxious to see what he comes up with next.Recycling Jimmy Overview
