Jack Proctor, a celebrated older writer and curmudgeon, goes off to residency where he is to be an honored part of teaching and giving public readings, he soon finds the atmosphere of the literary world has changed since his last foray into the public sphere. Unknown to most, unable to work on his own writing, surrounded by a host of odd characters, would-be writers, antagonists, handlers, and members of the elite House of Art and Aesthetics, Proctor finds himself driven to distraction (literally in a very very tiny car). This is a story of a man attempting not to go mad when forced to stop his own writing in order to coach others to write. Proctor's tour of rural places, pubs, theaters, fancy parties, where he is to be headlining as a "Banker-Prize-Winning-Author" reads like a literary version of Spinal Tap. Uproariously funny, brilliantly philosophical, gorgeously written this is James Kelman at his best.
1961. He began work in the printing trade then moved around, working in
various jobs in various places. He was living in England when he started
writing: ramblings, musings, sundry phantasmagoria. He committed to it
and kept at it. In 1969 he met and married Marie Connors from South
Wales. They settled in Glasgow and still live in the dump, not far from
their kids and grandkids. He still plugs away at the ramblings, musings,
politicking and so on, supported by the same lady.
