Morvern Callar

Mycket gott skick.
It is off-season in a remote Highland sea-port: 21-year-old Morvern Callar, a low-paid employee in the local supermarket, wakes one morning to find her strange boyfriend has committed suicide and is dead on their kitchen floor. Morvern's, laconic reaction is both intriguing and immoral. What she does next is even more appalling...
'Morvern Callar must be the year's most unjustly neglected novel...bleak, haunting and brilliantly original' Nick Hornby, Books of the Year, Observer
'Not since Camus' Outsider has a voice with so many angles hopped and fluttered from the page, has a note risen to chill in its opening breath' Scotland on Sunday
'Morvern gleams like an onyx from a vivid, macabre and lyrical book...she is impossible to forget' Elizabeth Young, Guardian
'Morvern is a brilliant creation... more than a stunning debut novel; to my mind it establishes Alan Warner as one of the most talented, original and interesting voices around'
Irvine Welsh.
