Is the menage a trois a way to live, or just a dream, impossible in reality?
In 1993, Dot, Saul and Owen lived together on the fringes of the Hoxton art scene, shoplifting, dole scrounging, doing drugs and swapping clothes and beds. Their year as a ménage, however, led to a suicide attempt, to art stardom, and to one of the three vanishing from the world.
Fifteen years later there is a big retrospective of Dot's art and they are each drawn back into each other's lives. But can they relive the past, or will they rekindle the passions that nearly destroyed them?
Ménage is a Jules et Jim for the jilted generation. A tale of heroin chic, fake moustaches, shoplifted sherry, pickled animals, and a love so insane that it could only be a work of art.

Review:
"Frightening, funny, perceptive, emotional and honest... excellent" (Scotsman)
"A fast-paced, poignant tale about the arrogance of youth and insane, all-consuming love" (Sunday Herald)
"Ménage is an accomplished, often poignant novel [which] strives to go beyond corrosive irony and world-weary cynicism to recapture a sense of the possibilities of love" (Scotland on Sunday)
"Few writers have what it takes to make it as proper porno-prose stars...thank goodness then for Ewan Morrison...watching his characters' fantasies (and sanity) crumble is just as interesting third time round as it's ever been before" (Matt Thorne The Independent)
