Books like Ten Tales Tall and True

connor told me i should read something i was sure to enjoy on my birthday, just pure pleasure. i thought that was what i was doing with alasdair gray. and its not that i didnt enjoy it, this is just not my favorite of his books. so this review-space is just to say - go read lanark. (which i havent reviewed, but just allow me to say is the best)typically a scottish fabulist, some of these stories were more real (boo)than i expected. the first one, in particular, was like reading an alan sillitoe story (which is good, just wasnt what i was prepared for as my birthday escapist fiction.)but lanark, o lanark. i know i cant do it justice until i reread it (ive read it twice but many years ago) i would just like a little trust here, after all we have been through together. seriously, lanark.
