Meet Me Under the Westway - Softcover

"'Stephen Thompson's best book. Read it.' Nik Cohn 'A funny, evocative, authentic account of a struggling playwright's rise from obscurity to semi-obscurity. Brilliant.' Joe Penhall"

We're going nowhere.Jem, an aspiring playwright living in Notting Hill, has just been dumped by his girlfriend. He dreams of fame and acclaim but, after years of struggle, is still no closer to achieving either. And, just when he thinks things can't get worse, the career of his best friend and fellow playwright begins to take off...Set in London and Edinburgh, "Meet Me Under the Westway" is an acutely observed look at the world of theatre and the arts. Straight talking, fresh and highly entertaining, Stephen Thompson's novel is a satirical yet brassy view of modern friendships and ambitions which perfectly captures the relationships of the young(ish) and irresponsible.
