Résumé

A fantastical comedy from the irreplaceable Alasdair Gray

McGrotty and Ludmilla Résumé

McGrotty and Ludmilla Alasdair Gray

Mungo McGrotty's career in Whitehall is going nowhere. But when he finds the mysterious (and deadly) Harbinger Report, he realises he can blackmail his way to the very top.

This twisted Grayian retelling of the Aladdin story under the Thatcher regime sees our hero rise from pawn to power. But at what cost?
