[ebooks] Urban Revolution Now: Henri Lefebvre in Social Research and Architecture by From Ashgate at Arts-Photography

Description

From the award-winning writer of Howie the Rookie comes this blackly comic drama set in a crazed; completely re-imagined Dublin underworld; full of martial arts; rogue cops and savage low-lifes. Paddys weapons of choice are baseball bats and fists. Kilby (who imagines himself as something of an artist) prefers the skill of karate; which he practises on Hughie #150; who just wants to break the pins of the guy who put the one-legged palmist in hospital... A dreadful accident sets in motion a violent tug-of-war between two criminal footsoldiers over the loyalty of the third. Self-loathing; guilt and loneliness emerge in this frenzied narrative; culminating in a blistering battle for survival. this is pure; exhilaratingly irresponsible theatre - Guardian
