Jack and Liam, fed up with kiss-my-arse bosses and nose-to-nipple
commutes, quit their jobs and move to a small town in Turkey. Join
the culture-curious gay couple on their bumpy rite of passage in a
Muslim country. Meet the oddballs, VOMITs, vetpats, emigreys,
semigreys, debauched waiters and middle England miseries. When
bigotry and ignorance emerge from the crude underbelly of Turkey's
expat life, Jack and Liam waver. Determined to stay the course, the
happy hedonistas hitch up their skirts, move to the heart of
liberal Bodrum and fall in love with their intoxicating foster
land. Enter Jack's irreverent world for a right royal dose of
misery and joy, bigotry and enlightenment, betrayal and loyalty,
friendship, love, earthquakes, birth, adoption and a senseless
murder. Perking the Pansies will make you laugh out loud one minute
and sob into your crumpled tissue the next. "Scott pulls no

abroad - with a twist - from the pen of a serial people watcher.
Expat Jack lays his characters bare along with his heart and soul,

hilarious, saucy, witty, heartwarming and incredibly moving,
Perking the Pansies is chock full of odd characters and odder
situations. Jack Scott has a way with words and proves that it is
the relationships we surround ourselves with that matter most,"
