Sitting Ducks

by Lisa Blower - £9.99  Fair Acre Press (2016)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781911048015 | ISBN 10: 1911048015

“Meagre in build. Mouthy in nature. One good owner and pottery trained: Josiah ‘Totty’ Minton is bang out of sick notes and harbouring the dream of a three-bed semi with bay windows, fully-fitted carpets and enough of a garden to stretch his legs.”
 
It’s the 2010 general election. Labour has lost its footing and the country is in disarray. But somewhere in the arse pocket of Stoke on Trent, a mother and son are waging their campaign against the state, the system, and predatory landlord Malcolm Gandy, to remain in their council-owned home.
 
Lisa Blower’s debut is a novel for our times that will have you laughing out loud then raging at the page.
