into the wreck
'One of the best novels I’ve read this year from an unusually gifted writer' IRISH TIMES'A wonderfully stylish writer with an unwavering eye' JOHN PATRICK McHUGH'Perfectly calibrated . . . These characters spike off the page' A. K. BLAKEMOREHow do you mourn someone you never really knew? Three siblings – Anna, Gemma and Matthew – will have to work that out quickly. Monday is the day of their gentle, but distant, father’s funeral, and for the first time in a long while they are under one roof with their mother, imperious Yvonne, awaiting the arrival of their aunt Amy, an award-winning poet. Yet, as the funeral looms, their everyday concerns refuse to diminish: will newly sex-obsessed Gemma work out what she wants from life, beyond her mother’s expectations? Can Anna maintain the fine balance between desire and nonchalance with her not-quite-exclusive boyfriend back in London? Will Amy’s past explode the relationships of the present? And, crucially, will Yvonne pull off her grand, post-funeral family dinner, the solution to what she fears may be an unsolvable problem? Told from five perspectives, into the wreck worries at the knotty complexities of one family’s bonds, written with Susannah Dickey’s trademark empathy and wit. 'A rare talent, and certainly one to watch' SUNDAY TIMES'One of literature's major new talents' OBSERVER'One of the funniest and most insightful novelists writing today' NELL FRIZZELL
Boyhood
Cult author David Keenan's most mature, magical and profoundly realised novel yet, centred on a young boy in Glasgow'A challenging, unconventional and daring piece of fiction ' THE INDEPENDENT'Blending emotional sincerity with pulpy pastiche' THE SUNDAY TIMES'Psychedelic post-punk fantasia' THE HERALD'A swaggeringly imaginative, polyphonic novel' THE SCOTSMANBoyhood opens in 1979 with the abduction of a young boy outside a Glasgow football ground. Nine years later, the boy's brother, Aaron Murray, is on the cusp of that moment when adolescence becomes adulthood. His own journey of grief and recovery has been guided by an angel, 'The Precious Gift' - perhaps imagined, perhaps real - who has blessed Aaron with redemptive, messianic powers. These have enabled him to see through the past and present, joining the dots between a vast array of characters; ballerinas, soldiers, poets, burlesque dancers, East End gangsters and the Vampire of Derry over five decades, all tied up in each other's fate. As Aaron's visions span cities and decades, from wartime Paris to the Troubles in the 1970s, Mexico City in the 1980s to - of course - Glasgow, Boyhood builds to an extraordinary, intense, climactic moment of redemption. A book of great joy, of laughter in the face of horror and delight in storytelling by the beloved and critically acclaimed author of This Is Memorial Device, Boyhood is a hymn to the resilience of youth, to the brave dreams of artists and lovers and a love letter to Glasgow - a city where magic happens. 'Slaps our dull, sterile culture hard across the face with a studded, uncompromising literary glove' - IRVINE WELSH'Reading Keenan is like reclaiming your own imagination' - LIAS SAOUDI'David Keenan is a wizard with words' - BENJAMIN MYERS'Boyhood is a marvel. Impossible to sum up, it is a true novel, jumping with event and spectacle and showmanship - while speaking in its own extraordinary voice of tenderness and violence and pity and love, along with the gorgeous great fun and wonder of being alive' - KIRSTY GUNN
I Don't Like Mondays
In 1979, Brenda Spencer, a seemingly average teenage girl living in a nice suburban neighbourhood, made and executed plans that would place her in infamy and set a violent and terrifying national precedent. She receives a rifle for Christmas and a month later set her sights and opens fire on the elementary school across the street. The event is forever glorified by the song 'I Don't Like Mondays' by The Boomtown Rats and marks the bloody beginning of the American phenomenon of school shootings. Long before Columbine and Sandy Hook, there was Brenda Spencer... I Don't Like Mondays lays bare this seemingly average teenage girl's brutal motives and subsequent arrest.
The Ossians
A last-chance winter road trip for a Scottish band spirals into wild chaos – seagull massacres, bomb tests, and darkly funny rock’n’roll madness on the edge. A raw, darkly funny novel by one of Scotland’s finest authors – newly reissued!ANNIVERSARY EDITION with an INTRODUCTION BY VAL McDERMID‘A drug-fuelled, counterclockwise state-of-the-nation rock ’n’ roll tour captures where we were at better than any modern novel I’ve read’ — Irvine Welsh‘A powerful and moving commentary on the country and its defining myths’ — Ian Rankin‘One of the most vital books about modern Scotland – our landscape, culture, identity, myths and lies – of the twenty-first century. And despite the dinge, debauchery and danger, it's still a joy to tour with the band’ — Callum McSorley‘Packed with seedy, sticky bars, sullen punters and morose reflections in deteriorating weather, there is an atmospheric beauty to The Ossians’ — Independent on Sunday___Connor is twenty-four: brilliant, broken, and out of control. He’s the swaggering frontman of The Ossians, a Scottish indie band on the brink of signing a major record deal. Desperate to make their mark, they set off on a two-week winter tour across Scotland’s cities and hinterlands — a last-ditch attempt to find fame, purpose, and themselves. But the tour soon spirals into a surreal, chaotic odyssey. From seedy bars and snowbound towns to a final, defining Glasgow gig, the band hurtles through a whirlwind of seagull massacres, botched drug deals, a mysterious stalker, radioactive beaches, bomb-testing ranges, epileptic fits, riotous Russian submariners, deadly storms, epiphanies, regular beatings and random shootings. Raw, darkly funny and wild with energy, The Ossians is a gloriously anarchic story of rock’n’roll obsession, national identity and self-destruction — and what it means to belong: in a band, in a country, in a life unravelling at speed. ___‘The authentic ring of a man who’s been there’ — Guardian‘Johnstone is good at describing the excitement, boredom, sniping and bonhomie of a touring band at the transit-van end of the career arc’ — The Times‘A blast’ — Scotland on Sunday‘So exhilaratingly authentic, you can hear the chords and smell the vomit’ — Christopher Brookmyre‘A gripping, compelling road trip around modern Scotland’ — Niall Griffiths‘This is This Is Spinal Tap for Scotland’s lost generation.

The Party to End All Parties
***** Readers LOVE TO HATE the Morlands! ***** “I now feel like I need a bath and a long lie down…” “If ever there was a warning not to do drugs, this novel is it” "What in the Saltburn did I just read?" “A master class in family dysfunction” “Oh my God what in the what?” "Gloriously deranged. And yes, the goat absolutely steals the show" The disgustingly rich and grossly dysfunctional Morland siblings are throwing one of their infamous parties, before it's decided which one of them will take over their ancestral family home.

The Morlands each have a motive, and they all have dubious morals. But which of them is actually a murderer? While all of them suspect the others, the siblings face a choice: call the police (but risk investigation into their other illegal dealings) or work together to hide the body in the wine cellar. They choose badly. Unfortunately, teamwork doesn't come naturally to this family. With Grandma on her way and the inheritance decision looming, old traumas re-surface and new threats start to claw their way out of the shadows… Who will survive until the afterparty? ***** More reader reactions! ***** “Family drama so toxic it should come with a biohazard label. […] Characters you love to hate: petty, venomous, and so self-absorbed they’d probably step over your body on the way to brunch”
