A Slumdog, feel-good treasure find' Daily Mail
Andy Mulligan was brought up in South London. He worked as a
theatre director for ten years, before travels in Asia prompted him
to retrain as a teacher. He has taught English and Drama in
Britain, India, Brazil and the Philippines.
Andy's novel Trash has been published in twenty-two languages and
is now a Bafta-nominated major film directed by Stephen Daldry and
scripted by Richard Curtis.
One of the most exciting and original novels of the year . . . It's
a tight, thrilling story, told from various characters'
perspectives and has a Slumdog, feel-good pulse beating through it.
A genuine treasure find
*Daily Mail*
One of my favourite novels of 2010, now in paperback with a new
cover look. Reminiscent of Slumdog Millionaire, three dumpsite boys
take on the world in this gripping and intensely moving story . . .
Harrowing, exhilarating, humbling and quite brilliant
*The Bookseller*
Outstanding, hotly anticipated thriller . . . an exceptionally
satisfying plot
*The Times*
Great stuff: taut, plausible and thought-provoking
*Daily Telegraph*
Trash is a thriller with moral weight and a complex structure . . .
Without ever moralising, Mulligan raises issues of corruption,
poverty, waste and excess in an exciting, but also grimly sad
tale
*Financial Times*
