Description

From Magnus Mills, a wiry book of tensile toughness about working-class Scotland that scans like Irvine Welsh, or simply Macbeth, tailored by the Coen brothers.Once upon a period in Scotland, there have been three guys who constructed high tension walls, the type that keep creatures in and people out—or possibly another way around. Magnus Mills provides us a novel of tensile energy that demonstrates him an author of ferocious expertise. Spooky, resounding, free yet full of shades equally amusing and ominous—as if your function by Irvine Welsh, or maybe Macbeth, had been tailored by the Coen brothers—his tale has a climax so clever, subtle, and gratifying, it stays locked in your brain long following the last cable has been put into location. 0
