The story of a lad who was on the books at Manchester City but got injured and never made it.`A vital writer, in touch with people and the natural and constructed worlds around us.' -Nicholas RoyleSky hooks are like glass hammers and bubbles from spirit levels, things you get asked to find on your first day in a warehouse. In this case it is also a metaphor for dreams.Set in contemporary Manchester this story is about a lad who was on the books at City but got injured and never made it. It is a coming of age tale, and the first part of a trilogy.Praise for Neil Campbell's work`Everyone who takes contemporary fiction seriously will want to read and re-read this book.' -Andrew Biswell`The dialogue is note perfect and has a studied, savage banality.' -Paul Magrs`These are stories not of love but of need and they ache with truth; they are as eerie and lonely as any Hopper painting.' -Nuala Ni ChonchuirNeil Campbell writes, "I wrote this book after labouring through a Creative Writing PHD in Northumberland. I wrote it fast. Back on home turf, this novella burst out of me like an animal." Download it now. |
