"So what makes a good pop novelist? Nalda Said is attracting great acclaim, not because it is a book by the bass player of Belle and Sebastian, but because it is a fabulous novel. The story concerns the nameless son of a jewel thief, brought up by his aunt Nalda, who convinces the boy that he carries one of his father's hidden jewels inside his stomach.
The fantasy-like narrative details his subsequent terror of and interaction with society, who he fears will discover his secret and steal his jewel."--BOOK JACKET.
