The Peacock Manifesto: A beer-fuelled pursuit of the American Dream. Glasgow style.
Stuart David - 2018
Stuart David’s cult classic, The Peacock Manifesto, was described by The Big Issue as ‘a Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas for the Transporting generation,’ and by Scotland On Sunday as 'a lightning-paced explosion on the page. A feast of bruising humour.' It tells the story of Peacock Johnson, a well-dressed Glasgow hard-man who heads for America armed only with a Glen Campbell record, and an idea that he believes is guaranteed to turn him into a dance music millionaire. Peacock touches down in Chicago, and sets off on a wild road trip across the country with an ex-con called Evil Bob. Let loose in the land of gun-totting taxi drivers, gargantuan sandwiches, and ecstatic Elvis worship, Peacock watches his plans spiraling chaotically out of control as he travels towards a full on collision with American culture, at breakneck speed- doing everything he can to hold onto his Glaswegian vision of the American Dream. Praise for The Peacock Manifesto: ‘The DJing scene alone is, as Peacock might say, “pure f*cking genius”’ UNCUT ‘With a frenetic mixture of farce and reality David has created a rollercoaster ride of a novel.’ ATTITUDE ‘The f-word count is probably a world record” THE BOOKSELLER MAGAZINE
