Özet:
James Kelman is one of the most important Scottish writers now living. This book attempts to clarify his literary influences and to illuminate his political commitments. It is the first book to cover the full range and depth of Kelman's work, explaining his position within genres such as the short story and the polemical essay, and tracing his interest in anti-colonial politics and existential thought. Chapters combine lucid accounts of the heated debates surrounding Kelman's writing, with a sharp focus on the techniques of that writing itself.
