it's the story of a nigerian refugee
told both by the nigerian girl and the middleclass white suburban housewife upon whom she descends illegally. it has a really intriguing thing on the cover, something like "we don't want to tell you too much about this story because we don't want to spoil it for you" and they are absolutely right - it is BRILLIANT but absolutely unique. it got some dreadful richard and judy award and costa coffee award.

Sounds shit
Any guns, explosions, double-crosses or breasts?

of all of them! as well as being funny, it is quite shockingly horrifying, i had to hide it under a cushion at one point (not actually joking)

How big are your cushions?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 12:04, Reply)

what a personal question
how big is your draught-excluder?
( rachelswipe with a fork, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 12:06, Reply)

Well, it's the width of the door.
Well obviously the cushion would have to be big for you to hide under, but are we talking about a floor cushion, or maybe a bean-bag?
