Primeros reseñadores
Ezekiel Murphy has been out of work for some time so starts up his new job as a toilet attendant with great optimism and enthusiasm. When his fellow workers have to explain to him why he will sometimes see two men leaving the same cubicle he is both shocked and bemused. And when the council clamp down on cottaging in the area they all support the campaign with gusto. However, one month later, with takings down alarmingly the three attendants find their jobs on the line, forcing a radical and quite surprising rethink. Gents is a genuinely life-affirming novel which addresses the serious issues of race, sexuality and tolerance with skill and humour. Originally published in 1997, it deserves to be viewed as a modern classic. About the Author: Warwick Collins is the author of 8 novels, all of which have been published to great acclaim across Europe but some of which have yet to be published in the UK. Gents has been a Top 3 bestseller in France and remains hugely popular over there as well as enjoying significant success in Germany, Italy, Spain and Scandinavia. Collins is viewed by our European colleagues as a major British writer but is criminally ignored in his own country. Until now. In 2008, Collins and The Friday Project will embark upon one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken by any author by publishing 12 novels in 12 months.
