About this Item

Paperback. 'The first queerbasher McGillivray ever met was in the mirror.' From the revivalist churches of Orkney in the 1970s, to the gay bars of London and Northern England in the 90s, via the divinity school at Aberdeen, this is the story of McGillivray, self-centered, promiscuous hypocrite, failed Church of Scotland minister, and his own worst enemy. Determined to live life on his own terms, McGillivray fails to take note of the writing on the wall, a failure that leads to him being followed home one night, and subjected to a brutal attack that changes everything. Raw and uncompromising, this is a viciously funny but ultimately moving account of one man's desire to come to terms with himself and live life as he sees fit. From revivalist churches in 70s Orkney to gay bars in 90s London and Northern England, via the divinity school at Aberdeen, this is the story of McGillivray, self-centred, promiscuous hypocrite, failed Church of Scotland minister, and his own worst enemy. Raw, uncompromising. A viciously funny account of a mans desire to come to terms with himself. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

About this title

Synopsis

‘The first queerbasher McGillivray ever met was in the mirror.’ From the revivalist churches of Orkney in the 1970s, to the gay bars of London and Northern England in the 90s, via the divinity school at Aberdeen, this is the story of McGillivray, a self-centred, promiscuous hypocrite, failed Church of Scotland minister, and his own worst enemy. Determined to live life on his own terms, McGillivray’s grasp on reality slides into psychosis and a sense of his own invulnerability, resulting in a brutal attack ending life as he knows it. Raw and uncompromising, this is a viciously funny but ultimately moving account of one man’s desire to come to terms with himself and live his life as he sees fit.
