The titles in the "Textplus" series, designed to reflect the changing nature of English Literature at advanced post-GCSE level, offer the complete text with a specially commissioned introduction and compact background notes placing the work in historical and critical context. Together, these components are intended to open up the text for students, allowing them to plot their own course of study, to plan extended projects, to compare writers' perspectives on similar themes and to relate works to key social and historical phenomena.

Review:
"Intense, witty and beautifully wrought" (Telegraph)

"He has a hard muscular quality to his writing . . . His phrases hammer against you like a collier's pick" (The Times)

"Here a human history is mined with humour and a clenching sense of its sombre inequities: man's squat but lengthening shadow in the sun" (Guardian)

"William McIlvanney paints a world of harsh reality, but does so in language that is strangely beautiful and hauntingly poetic. His work defies pigeonholing in any genre: this is simply great writing from a master of his craft" (CRAIG RUSSELL)

"A serious, considered and achingly sympathetic engagement with the people whose only trace in historical record is birth and dead notices" (Scotsman)
Book Description:
The Whitbread Prize-winning modern classic. Introduced by Hugh McIlvanney
