| Synopsis: |
Scottish football is the weirdest of organisms, simultaneously compelling and repulsive in equal measure. The Hope That Kills Us brings together specially commissioned stories from some our country's best contemporary writers and discovers some startling new voices. Each story examines, from its own unique viewpoint, the participants, observers, experience and emotion that feed our national obsession. New stories from Alan Spence, Bernard MacLaverty, Des Dillon, Denise Mina, Gordon Legge, Laura Hird, Linda Cracknell, Alan Bissett, Suhayl Saadi and others. |
