Books by Des Dillon

A book to make you laugh. A book to make you cry. A book to make you rage against the injustices of the world. A book to make you feel better about it all. Perhaps. Perhaps not.

Encompassing a myriad of characters and their stories, this book provides an emotional and intense insight into the world of alcoholism whilst exploring the themes of revenge and forgiveness.

A story of boyhood friendship and irrepressible vitality told with the speed of trains and the understanding of the awkwardness, significance and fragility of that time. This is a day in the life of two boys as told by one of them.

Manny Riley is a recovering alcoholic and struggling scriptwriter with a serious anger management problem. Lately, though, things have started to change for the better. He'll soon find that these things only open up a whole new world of problems he'll have to face up to.

Welcome to Dillon's world; He takes you from the darkness of the illustrated Man and Jif Lemons to the laugh out loud Bunch of c***s. If you're an alchoholic, recovering alcoholic, insane, a policeman, prisoner, gold digger, farmer, animal lover, Scots or Irish Scots you may well recognise yourself somewhere in this book.
