Campbell’s splendidly funny and touching work gives voice to people you don’t hear much of in fiction: the working class of Manchester. A working class of Manchester in danger of being forgotten as the city’s skyscrapers spread high and wide. A Manchester where Hacienda cliches turn into corporate nightmares.
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.
