Product Description
Niall Griffiths
White has fashioned an unusual and very welcome novel.  At the core of this unique literary experience, lies a big, wide heart, always sweetly beating.

Michael Bracewell
An astonishing and audacious novel - the compelling voice of Foxy-T reads like a 21st-century update of Salinger's Holden Caulfield.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best novel I've read in years, 1 Oct 2003
By A Customer
This fantastic, unexpected, hilarious and very sad work of genius kept me up all last night and made me phone in sick this morning just so I could finish it. An unbelievably good read - a real shard of excellence. Why it hasn't been more reviewed and isn't up for the Booker I have no idea. The language is so excellent! The plot so pacey! I could keep going for a long time, but you get my drift.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dynamic Language -- East End Style, 21 Oct 2004
By A. Ross (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Foxy-T (Paperback)
I first came across White via the Britpulp! anthology, in which his short story "A0" indicated talent and promise. This, his third novel, is set in Shadwell (East End London, between Whitechapel and Wapping), and written entirely in a Cockney-Carribean-South Asian patios that is both astonishing and somewhat dizzying. The experience is not unlike the first time one reads Scots (eg. James Kelman, or more popularly, Trainspotting). There's a lot of idiom and a definite rhythm and cadence, but if you're not from that world, it can take a little getting used to. Here's just a taste from page 85: "That a
