Description
The Gunner by Paul Larkin In 1990, Edinburgh's Muirhouse area is gripped by poverty and an AIDS epidemic. Yet, among its younger residents, a thriving music scene has emerged as a source of solace. For two friends, Jimmy and Wee Harry, this winter day at their local boozer, The Gunner, holds the promise of discovery and revelation. As they gather with colourful characters, sharing tales of The Hacienda and Bryan Robson, they begin to uncover the threads that will shape their lives. This poignant story weaves together the experiences of its protagonists, providing answers to life's big questions. Set against the backdrop of a city in turmoil, The Gunner is a powerful exploration of youth, friendship, and the enduring power of music.
