Beskrivning

Campbell gives voice to the extraordinary (never ordinary) men and women of Manchester. He goes beyond the King's English and formulaic approaches to short stories to capture, in print, how people really talk. Think James Kelman, Irvine Welsh, but Mancunian. Funny and heartfelt, this book is a romp to whizz through with pleasure. Forget mad for it Madchester, this is the Manchester of now, where Hacienda clichés turn into corporate nightmares and the only art is in marketing.

Recensioner i media

Short, sharp and scabrously funny, Campbell’s energetic, raw short stories head into the backstreets and byways of Manchester. His swaggering and unsentimental style unspools societal ills and how they impact the lives of his characters.
