## Description

Meet Alby. Natural habitat: a bar; a boat; his bedroom; a broad's bedroom. Favourite hobbies: starting fights (then losing them); hooking up with broads (then losing them); hating cats (it's a skill); training Gary the baby bird to be a killer (sort of). Best kept secret: when his mum died it broke his hear and he doesn't really know what to do about it. ' Sumell's savage humour is thrilling' New York Times ' Gloriously funny ' Literary Review ' Making Nice has an anarchic humour and a goofy, ingenious humanity that makes every page feel new ' Guardian
