'We're in the back of a car owned by the men our mothers told us to never get in the back of an automobile of. I close my eyes and wonder just how many girls should come to my funeral.' Vincent Patrick Duffy has already checked out. Trapped between Skintown's narrow horizons, he chops ribs and chickens in a takeaway, dreaming of escape, joint after freshly rolled joint. A mindless act of kindness brings about the unlikeliest of work at home opportunities. Where in fact the government has failed, might the second summer of love and just a little pill with a dove on it be the broom to sweep away the hatred and replace it with love, much love? Skintown is Vinny's drink- and drug-fuelled odyssey through fighting, fishing, rioting, romance, reconciliation and acid house. Bristling with a restless energy and drunk on black humour, this superb debut is a wild ride.
