A novelist walks into a restaurant.
Badumdum.
Armed with a laptop, a mobilephone, a pack of cigarettes, a
coffeechick, and a state of mind hovering between pure apathy and utter
contempt, he spends the hours from dusk until dawn on a summer night
trying to write a book about an alien invasion, an actual invasion of
his privacy by every selfimportant twerp in the building
notwithstanding.
Written from his perspective, coloured by his own interpretations, the
fictional autobiography remains mired in truth, documenting the
unfortunate epidemic of drunks and joiners lamented by lurkers the world
over, his reactions and strategies to be left the hell alone
ameliorating him as the antihero deigning to counterattack the forces of
dimness foolishly appointing themselves entitlement to respect and
adoration, all while George—a paranoid schizophrenic in the
corner—counts down to the end of the world at dawn: a premise insane,
yet, in the strictest sense, not necessarily inaccurate. Views: 44

Love your family. Hate your enemies. Know the business.
Imelda Dooley is scared. Really scared. She's played hard and fast and now she's been caught.
She's pregnant and she's on her own. Her father, not a man to mess with,
will see that somebody pays for this. And it's not going to be her. So
Imelda Dooley tells a lie. A lie that literally causes murders.
When Mary Dooley's husband is killed in the night's events, she knows
she must graft to keep the family afloat. And she does, becoming a name
in her own right. But she still has to watch her daughter's life spiral
into a vicious, hate-fuelled cycle of drugs and prostitution.
Caught up in the carnage that is Imelda's existence are Mary's adored
grandchildren, Jordanna and Kenny. Pretty little Jordanna isn't yet
three and she already knows far too much. All the little girl can do is
look after her baby brother, Kenny, and try not to draw unwanted
attention to herself.
Set in the heart of London's criminal world, from the tail-end of the
seventies up until the present-day, THE BUSINESS is a gritty,
disturbing and haunting tale of drugs, prostitution and a young girl's
fight for survival - against all the odds. Views: 44
