Perking the Pansies - witty, unique, exceptionally well-crafted

15/2/2017

Comments

 
Perking the Pansies
"The book is replete with witty dialog and outlandish characters. The narrator, Jack, while seeming to present their daily life in a straightforward way, tends to throw his husband and their new acquaintances into high relief while keeping his own personality shaded and his own emotions in check. The device works well, mostly because Scott is a fine writer who knows just what he’s doing."

Turkey Street: witty, gritty and thoroughly readable

Turkey Street, Jack and Liam move to Bodrum
Picture
Scott peels back the layers of expat life and the sense of pace and fun is infectious. But Scott never loses sight that these are real people in a real place and it is as if we are simply hiding behind a curtain, watching a spectacular reality show with shades of light and dark, humour and pathos in turn.

It was a great pleasure to follow Jack and Liam's journey from Yalikavak to Bodrum and beyond. Jack is educational as well as decorative - an historian and political/economic commentator in a poet's skin.
