OverviewGone Tomorrow is a passionate chronicle of death and obsession told before the full onslaught of AIDS. A disfigured, jaded young actor narrates the story of a seductive and monstrous film director who has convened his international cast and crew in Colombia, where a serial killer is on the loose. The making of his film of vast, if vague, ambition, brings together a group of people whose implosive relationship - fired by narcissism, sex, alcohol and drugs - are fiercely dissected by the narrator against an ominous backdrop of cultural dissolution, social anarchy and political violence.

It?s a philosophical work devised by a writer who?s both too intelligent to buy into the popular notion that a successful future requires the compromise of collective decision and too moral to accept bitterness as the consequence of an adventurous life? Dennis Cooper, LA Weekly ?Horribly refreshing, like an ice-cold glass of acid on a sweltering summer day... Indiana writes with an art critic?s eye for detail and a poet?s ear for language?
