WINNER OF THE GORDON BURN PRIZEAn unflinching portrait of contemporary Traveller culture by the award-winning author of The Gallows PoleJohn-John wants to escape his past. But the legacy of brutality left by his boxer father, King of the Gypsies, Mac Wisdom, overshadows his life. His new job as an ice cream man should offer freedom, but instead pulls him into the dark recesses of a northern town where his family name is mud. When he attempts to trade prejudice and parole officers for the solace of the rural landscape, Mac’s bloody downfall threatens John-John’s very survival.

This is one powerful novel about a young man who has just been released from prison. He's only 19 , maybe 20, being a gypsy no one ever recorded his birth date. He is ready to slowly move back into society and do the right thing and I thought he was on his way.At some point, the reader groans and mutters, 'No, no, no. Don't do that.' It's as though this poor guy is destined to encounter bad luck and have few inner resources to fight back.Set in England with ear jingling accents and adroit prose, it is a pleasure to grab each word.
