About this title

Synopsis

Welcome to Dillon's world; a world where murderous poultry and evolutionary elephants make their mark. He takes you from the darkness of the illustrated Man and Jif Lemons to the laugh out loud Bunch of c***s. These stories are instantly accessible and always personal. Relationships, places and language are set precisely with few words and no flinching. If you're an alchoholic, recovering alcoholic, insane, a policeman, prisoner, gold digger, farmer, animal lover, Scots or Irish Scots you may well recognise yourself somewhere in this book.
