Book excerpt: Director, actor, writer, Daisy Eris Campbell grew up in the lunatic world of her father, master storyteller Ken Campbell, described by The Guardian obituary as the most original and unclassifiable talent in British theatre of the past half-century. Daisy was literally conceived on the set of her father's 12-hour staging of Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson's epic production of Illuminatus!, in which her mother Prunella Gee played Eris, the 50-foot goddess of discord. In Pigspurt's Daughter, Daisy presents a surreal and comedic monologue that magnificently builds on the family tradition, and includes the enlightening obscure art of gastromancy leading to the absurdly entertaining necessity of Daisy coming to terms with the larger-than-life influence of her father on her life, what Daisy calls "pulling herself out from her dad's arsehole."
