The Hole in the Bedsitting Room Wall

Description

Set in the 1970s, this short work of fiction focuses on the experiences, sometimes surreal, of an undergraduate in a run-down bedsitting room in a northern English city. The anxieties and peculiarities of the anti-hero, together with a distinctive feature of the premises - a gaping hole in the wall - provide the basis for this gritty black comedy which continuously embraces issues of far wider social moment.
