Published by Hutchinson & Co., London; 1975. 8vo. 215pp. First edition, first impression. Condition; Fine/Fine
Bound in original red cloth boards with title in white to the spine. The binding is square and tight and in excellent condition, free from marks or blemishes, with just a touch of bumping and darkening to the edges. Inside, the pages are clean and bright with a little light toning.
This smart book is housed in its original, first issue, dust jacket. It is vibrant and bright with no marks or damage and just a slight hint of bumping to the spine ends.
In all, this is a very smart, collectible, example of Alan Bleasdale's first novel, based upon the stories he originally wrote to entertain his secondary students in the school where he taught for four years. It was later broadcast on BBC Radio Merseyside and was the basis for stage and television plays, and a seven part tv series. 'This novel shows just what it's like to live between the back streets and the new estates in Liverpool - to grow up a boot boy, to fight authority, to kick against the pricks. And, through its free-wheeling, anarchic humour, it shows vividly why Scully is the way he is - sharp, talented, confused, spasmodically vicious; knowing all the dodges, yet unaware of what makes them necessary. In Scully, Alan Bleasdale has created one of the most engaging yet disturbing characters in contemporary fiction.'
