Summary
An "energetic, irreverent and very funny" (New York Times Book Review) first novel set in Glasgow during a single week in the late sixties.

New York. 1994. Harcourt Brace. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0151874271. Whitbread Book Of The Year. 407 pages. hardcover. Cover design by Steven Cooley. keywords: Scotland Literature . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Jeff Torrington's startlingly original first novel is set in Glasgow, Scotland, during a single-week in the late sixties. Christmas is approaching, and Thomas Clay is beset with mounting problems: his wife is in the maternity hospital prematurely; he's waiting for news of their transfer to Legoland' high-rise housing - or for his tenement to be demolished beneath his very feet; he has no job, and his novel is, as yet, unpublished. Staggering from crisis to crisis, Thomas Clay is a man pursued - by petty gangsters, his Mafia-like in-laws, a doppelganger, and by time itself. He may imagine he has evaded the tyranny of clocks by escaping the nine-to-five, but no matter how fast he runs, the Grim Reaper seems cold on his heels. inventory #14232 ISBN: 0151874271.
