Notes
Set in Glascow and the West f Scotland in the late 1960s, A Gift from Nessus has, if anything, gained in relevance with the passage of time. The crisis in the life of Eddie Cameron, the salesman, foreshadows one of the key questions that face society in the 1900s: how effectively can we define ourselves by the external trappings of materialism when the inner life is empty ? His story is simultaneously that of the death of a social cipher and the birth of a man, and it is told often with humour and always with passion.
