Description
No Mean City is a vivid portrayal of Glasgow's pre-war slum underworld, set against the backdrop of a city's turbulent past. First published in 1935, this novel tells the story of Johnnie Stark, a complex and troubled figure at the heart of the city's violent and impoverished community.
The book's raw and unflinching descriptions bring to life a world of poverty, violence and social upheaval, creating a sense of authenticity and conviction that is both fascinating and unsettling.
Written by Alexander McArthur and H. Kingsley Long, No Mean City is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique glimpse into the lives of those living on the margins of society.
