40th anniversary edition 'Probably the greatest novel of the
century' Observer Lanark, a modern vision of hell set in the
disintegrating cities of Unthank and Glasgow, tells the interwoven
stories of Lanark and Duncan Thaw. A work of extraordinary
imagination, its playful narrative conveys a profound message, both
personal and political, about humankind's inability to love, and
yet our compulsion to go on trying. First published in 1981, Lanark
established Alasdair Gray as one of Britain's leading writers and
kick-started the modern renaissance of Scottish literature.
