Their Lips Talk Of Mischief (Pb), de Warner, Alan. Editorial Faber & Faber, tapa blanda en inglés internacional, 2016

Descripción

High up in the Conrad Flats that loom bleakly over Acton, two future stars of the literary scene - or so they assume - are hard at work, tapping out words of wit and brilliance between ill-paid jobs writing captions for the Cat Calendar 1985 and blurbs for trashy novels with titles like Brothel of the Vampire. Just twenty-one but already well entrenched in a life eked out on dole payments, pints and dollops of porridge and pasta, Llewellyn and Cunningham don't have it too bad: a pub on the corner, a misdirected parental allowance, and the delightful company of Aoife, Llewellyn's model fiancée, mother of his young baby - and the woman of Cunningham's increasingly vivid dreams. Warner is all set to deliver 'a darkly comic tale of hope and humanity against the grim urban and political landscape of Margaret Thatcher's Britain.
