The Rotter

"If Irvine Welsh wrote Bottom..." Smokes and the other residents of a quiet seaside town are disturbed and queasily fascinated by the arrival of the strange new tenant. After a series of increasingly weird occurrences, it quickly becomes apparent that things ain't quite right... and soon it's a matter of urgency that they discover the truth about The Rotter. In this bleakly humorous debut novel by J.D. Gray, the boundaries begin to blur between truth and fiction, and right and wrong, and the residents soon begin to question whether it's the newcomer who is mad, or if it's actually themselves. It's probably him... right?
