More about the book
'I am in a car park in Leeds when I tell my husband I don't want to be married to him any more . . . London GP Katie Carr always thought she was a good person. With her husband David making a living as 'The Angriest Man in Holloway', she figured she could put up with anything. Until, that is, David meets DJ Goodnews and becomes a good person too. A far-too-good person who starts committing crimes of charity like giving their kids' toys away and taking in the homeless. Suddenly Katie's feeling very bad about herself, and thinking that if charity begins at home, then maybe it's time to move . . . Cover art by: Agostino 'whether the book addresses graffiti explicitly, evoke a city from the past, or are considered cult classics, the novels all share the quality - like street art - of speaking to their time.'
