Taking its name from the clock-tower of South Queensferry's town hall, where Duncan McLean worked as a janitor, Clocktower Press has - over the past seven years published some of the most challenging and important writing to come out of Britain since the war. Early drafts of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, James Kelman's How Late it Was, How Late, and Janice Galloway's Foreign Parts, appeared alongside stories by the best young Scottish authors: Gordon Legge, James Meek and Alan Warner.
With Scottish fiction now acknowledged as the most exciting and influential being written in these islands, this anthology brings together some of the most influential of the original Clocktower publications as well as new pieces written specially for this collection. It is a fitting tribute to a publisher truly ahead of his time.
