Perfect reading material for the corner of your favourite boozer.” - Will Noble, Editor, Londonist\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Deserter has brilliantly jumped two-footed into fiction. These tales and the South London characters that populate them are enchanting, challenging, disquieting... and funny.\" - Bruce Dessau, Beyond the Joke, London Evening Standard\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Surprisingly tender, gently humorous stories of hare-brained schemes and idleness, of loves lost and friendships forged amid the disorientating surrealism of the all-day session.
