Jonny on a Chorizo. Paul Haworth. TRUE TRUE TRUE.<\/em><\/p>\n

THE YEAR IS 2009. Gangs of children, some as young as ten, are slowly roasting puppies over bonfires. To be alive is unrelenting and grim. Pyramid schemesters, balloon boys, gender-row runners. Pop-up brothels in industrial units. Fish nibbling at feet. Facemasks on the street. Pandemic after pandemic. New and more deadly strains keep coming and a sneeze on the tube is now a potential death sentence.<\/p>\n

ENOUGH. Because Alex \u2018Abs\u2019 Brenchley is back \u2013 and this is his last goodbye.<\/p>\n

Picking up straight after Alone, Desperate and Going Nowhere, he returns exhausted, rebarbative, defeated. And impotent. A pact is made: if life remains so desperately miserable, Abs will get off this melancholy-go-round once and for all. But his luck and his London are about to change, following a chance meeting with Ga\u2014<\/p>\n

No to spoilers: Jonny on a Chorizo is a book of surprise and adventure. Carrying the reader on a joyous ride through London \u2013 its pearly queens, crushed dreams, bashment, blue jeans, scenes of romance in Crowlands \u2013 towards a heartfelt climax. Une fin v\u00e9ritable to a trilogy which began with the publication of Silk Handkerchiefs in 2009.<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s bump uglies, dance about the Maypole and have one last night at the St Moritz, because this is it: Jonny on a Chorizo is the end for Abs.<\/p>\n
