I found no humour at all in these pages.
''Sulphuric Acid'' is the sharpest, best-observed study of humanity I've found in a novella since Conrad's [[''Heart of Darkness]] '' - and it is even more bleak.
''The time came when the suffering of others was not enough for them; they needed the spectacle of it too.'' This is the premise. Reality television is passé.
