Entertainment

Vitriolic in its disgust, malevolent in its humour, dazzling in its invective, Entertainment pushes you places you'd rather not go, where life's more bearable on vodka and whizz, bogs are for shagging other blokes' birds and the pub singer's crap and he's your dad. You don't have to be drunk to be legless (but it helps). An outrageous novel by a young man who does know better. "A cheerful and resilient first novel... Funny, energetic, tender" Time Out Richard John Evans is a journalist on the Wales on Sunday newspaper. He took an MA in Creative Writing at the University of Glamorgan for which he received a distinction. He is currently working on his second novel about urban blight.
