Two Slugs and a Satsuma

‘Two Slugs and a Satsuma’ is a narrative reflecting back to the recollections of one of two friends while witnessing the slow and painful decline of the other. It is often sarcastic, humorous and is a heart rending account of the cancer wards of today, while recalling the peripatetic escapades of two itinerant youths going from bedsit to bedsit in London during the late sixties. From Paris following the student unrest of sixty eight, the novel travels to America and the south during the civil unrest in the seventies and then to the east, and to Hong Kong before the handover.
