Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. After the critical success of his first novel,  Morvern Callar, Alan Warner has written an extraordinary, stirring sequel to Morvern's odyssey, confirming him as one of the most original, uniquely gifted writers to have appeared this decade. An air-crash investigator haunts the hinterlands of an island--around the isolated honeymoon hot spot, the Drome Hotel--gathering the debris from fallen planes that the islanders have fashioned into makeshift sheds and fences; but what kind of jigsaw is he really assembling as he paces the runway? A young woman makes landfall on the island, crossing the interior to arrive at the Drome Hotel: desperate, strange--and strangely familiar. Meanwhile, DJ Cormorant is trying to organize The Big One, a rave on the adjacent airstrip, and from all over These Demented Lands come twisted characters, converging for one final Saturday night at the Drome Hotel.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Her boyfriend is dead on the kitchen floor. Morvern Callar?s silence is not innocence, and it is not grief either. It is off-season in a remote Highland sea port. Twenty-one-year-old Morvern Callar, a low-paid employee in the local supermarket, wakes one morning to find that her strange boyfriend has committed suicide and is dead on their kitchen floor. Rather than break down, Morvern acts with a calm that is more disturbing than panic. She goes on moving through the ordinary world of supermarket shifts, drink, sex, money and small-town routines, while the fact of death remains hidden at the centre of everything. Alan Warner?s debut is a modern Scottish literary novel unlike any conventional story of grief. Morvern is not offered as a puzzle to be solved or a victim to be explained. She is watchful, secretive, physical and hard to judge, making her way through a world where shock and freedom can feel dangerously close. Brutal, strange and darkly funny, Morvern Callar captures the dead-end atmosphere of a remote Highland port and the fierce privacy of a young woman who refuses to be understood on anyone else?s terms.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. An utterly unforgettable novel that portrays a vast internal emptiness by using the cool, haunting voice of a young woman in Scotland lost in the profound anomie of her generation--from "one of the most talented, original and interesting voices around" (Irvine Welsh, author of Trainspotting).  Morvern Callar, a low-paid employee in the local supermarket in a desolate and beautiful port town in the west of Scotland, wakes one morning in late December to find her strange boyfriend has committed suicide and is dead on the kitchen floor. Morvern's reaction is both intriguing and immoral. What she does next is even more appalling. Moving across a blurred European landscape--from rural poverty and drunken mayhem of the port to the Mediterranean rave scene--we experience everything from Morvern's stark, unflinching perspective. Morvern is utterly hypnotizing from her very first sentence to her last. She rarely goes anywhere without the Walkman left behind as a Christmas present by her dead boyfriend, and as she narrates this strange story, she takes care to tell the reader exactly what music she is listening to, giving the stunning effect of a sound track running behind her voice. In much the same way that Patrick McCabe managed to tell an incredibly rich and haunting story through the eyes of an emotionally disturbed boy in The Butcher Boy, Alan Warner's Morvern Caller is a brilliant creation.…
