The Crow Road by Iain Banks
The Blurb....
'It was the day my grandmother exploded. I sat in the crematorium, listening to my Uncle Hamish quietly snoring in harmony to Bach's Mass in B Minor, and I reflected that it always seemed to be death that drew me back to Gallanach.'
Prentice McHoan has returned to the bosom of his complex but enduring Scottish family. Full of questions about the McHoan past, present and future, he is also deeply preoccupied: mainly with death, sex, drink, God and illegal substances...
My Blurb.....
An anniversary edition of this book, though I hadn't read it before, I had heard of it, so obviously had to read it.
The book moves backwards and forwards in time and is bizarre at times.
It starts....
It was the day my grandmother exploded - i mean honestly how could i not carry on? What happened in The Crow Road told via different characters and family dramas.
It will make you laugh, turn green and mix you up. Nothing wrong with that.
Enjoy
