Kennedy Marr is a writer, a borderline alcoholic and a sex addict. When he becomes the unlikely recipient of a prestigious writing prize, he is contracted to spend a year teaching creative writing, and finds himself reconsidering his precarious lifestyle. Exploring the mid-life crisis and the contemporary male psyche, this is an explosive new work from the bestselling author of "Kill your Friends".

Summary
