On the Yankee Station

Adolescent sex in a Scottish boys' public school ...Oddballs on the seedy side of America ...Murder in a quiet Devon cottage ...Comical, ironical or lacerating - wit is the keynote of these stories, which include two early adventures from the career of Morgan Leafy, glorious anti-hero of William Boyd's prize-winning novel "A Good Man in Africa". 'His writing, with nods in the direction of Borges and Nabokov, combines violence, comedy and experiment ...an impressively varied collection' - "Time Out".
