Narration Concering Books Acid Casuals
Estela, who used to be Paul but has just had the operation, returns to Manchester on a business trip. The business - to kill her ex-boss, a club owner and money launderer - entails encounters with a whole posse of Mancunian lowlifes, dodgy bouncers, bent coppers, Moss Side gangsters, DJs and all kinds of drugs and sex. The dialogue is sharp, the setting realistically slimy, the action well over the top.

This is a dramatized, rather than fictionalised, account of that, now disappeared, world.as an early work off his it is worth reading it is much more nuanced than the Manchester slingback novel

Very disappointingWhen I read the reviews of Acid Casuals, I thought they were a little harsh. Having written several novels myself, I have an idea about the effort involved. The version of Acid Casuals I downloaded was so obviously self published, and badly, I began to sympathize with the critics. No formatting, no editing, totally off putting, in truth. If the author was trying to create the idea of an acid trip, he failed, because the writing let him down. The total confusion of the prose
