'A beautiful début novel... A real achievement... This is a wise and incisive first novel from a real talent' - Scotsman
Winner of the Betty Trask Award.
Carmel McKisco is wry, volatile and full of longing: a twenty-year-old girl working nights in a Manchester dive bar. eccentric individuals all somehow tethered to their past - not least Carmel herself, who is nurturing mordant fixations on both her lost love, Tony, and her washed-up adolescent hero: a singer from Macclesfield.
