Exploring the mid-life crisis and the contemporary male psyche, this is an explosive new work from the bestselling author of "Kill your Friends".

Report

Straight White Male is a heartbreaker; a poignant literary treatise on the all-too-mortal battle between human individual desire and social need, disguised as a high-octane novel of laddish excess. Irvine Welsh
