Paperback. Condition: Good. Featured in Damian Barr''s picks for 2021 Shortlisted for the Gordon Burn Prize 2021 Chosen as one of the Best Books of 2021 in the Telegraph ''If this addictive slice of Edinburgh Gothic isn''t on all prize lists, there is no justice.'' iNews ''Over time, 10 Luckenbooth Close sinks from grand residence to condemned squat with secrets seething in its walls . Luckenbooth is a place of compacted time, where the past manifests as unquiet ghosts and the future bleeds into the present . There''s a force in Luckenbooth''s bizarre assemblage.'' The Times ''Definitely going to be one of my books of 2021, a gloriously transgressive novel of Edinburgh denizens past and present.'' IAN RANKIN ________________________ Stories tucked away on every floor. No. 10 Luckenbooth Close is an archetypal Edinburgh tenement. The devil''s daughter rows to the shores of Leith in a coffin. The year is 1910 and she has been sent to a tenement building in Edinburgh by her recently deceased father to bear a child for a wealthy man and his fiancee. The harrowing events that follow lead to a curse on the building and its residents - a curse that will last for the rest of the century. Over nine decades, No. 10 Luckenbooth Close bears witness to emblems of a changing world outside its walls. An infamous madam, a spy, a famous Beat poet, a coal miner who fears daylight, a psychic: these are some of the residents whose lives are plagued by the building''s troubled history in disparate, sometimes chilling ways. The curse creeps up the nine floors and an enraged spirit world swells to the surface, desperate for the true horror of the building''s longest kept secret to be heard. Luckenbooth is a bold, haunting and dazzlingly unique novel about the stories and secrets we leave behind, and the places that hold them long after we are gone. ________________________ ''One of the most stunning literary experiences I''ve had in years. Luckenbooth, sprawling the decades with its themes of repression and revenge, brings back something that has long been lacking in the British novel: ambition. If Alasdair Gray''s Lanark was a masterly imagining of Glasgow, then this is the quintessential novel of Edinburgh at its darkest.'' IRVINE WELSH ''A deeply powerful, compellingly vivid novel . Luckenbooth is a major work of Scottish fiction - possibly one of the most significant novels of the last ten years'' ALAN WARNER ''Luckenbooth is seedy, sexy and strange, a haunted house story soaked in booze and bad weather . Fagan''s prose is fast and impressionistic.'' Sunday Telegraph ''With Luckenbooth, [Jenni Fagan] gives us nine of Edinburgh''s wildest and loneliest misfits . Piles on claustrophobia and menace . As we move between the characters'' perspectives, gritty realism takes over from the gothic. This isn''t fancy Edinburgh: at No 10 it''s cigarettes, cocaine and Benzedrine for breakfast . There are memorable creations . Fagan''s prose is poetic, high-octane, built on punchy sentences. Arresting descriptions of the city and its weather abound. This is not a novel that lacks energy.'' Sunday Times ''Jenni Fagan''s Luckenbooth reminded me of one of my favourite novels, Georges Perec''s Life: A User''s Manual. Set in an Edinburgh tenement, it leaps across decades to tell the story of the curse that haunts No 10 Luckenbooth Close and its eccentric inhabitants.'' Alex Preston, Observer ''Structures and structuralism obsess Jenni Fagan. Those obsessions intertwine spectacularly in Luckenbooth, her third novel, about an Edinburgh tenement and the curse that haunts it, infecting the lives of all who live across the building''s nine floors over nine decades of mystery and uproarious change . Melding the poetic, the esoteric and the occult with the grit and grime of a real life lived on the edge, she writes unlike any other author of her generation, in no small part because she has lived a life unlike any other author.'' Scotsman ''A whirlwind of a novel, and I am certain that various labels will be attached to it - Caledonian magic realism, tartan gothic, something nasty in the shortbread tin, Angela Carter in a kilt cross-hatched with safety pins. What it is, is radical and profoundly fabulist. It is about the stories we are told and whether there is the possibility of there being new stories . There is a great deal of imagination and empathy at work here. The structure of the building acts as a kind of framework to contain the pent-up furies . Luckenbooth is a daring book, and beautifully written.'' Scotland on Sunday ''Fagan is unflinching in her depictions of derangement and death but Luckenbooth is compelling and often darkly funny . Her storytelling has an urgency and - to use an overused but apt word - authenticity.'' Financial Times ''Masterly . A lesser writer would struggle to control this cacophony of voices but what marks out Luckenbooth is the fierce intelligence driving Fagan''s tale . This is a mad god''s dream of a book - it deserves to be shortlisted for every prize going this year.'' iNews ''An audacious statement and a terrific read.'' TLS. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The devil's daughter rows to Edinburgh in a coffin, to work as maid for the Minister of Culture, a man who lives a dual life. But the real reason she's there is to bear him and his barren wife a child, the consequences of which curse the tenement building that is their home for a hundred years. As we travel through the nine floors of the building and the next eight decades, the resident's lives entwine over the ages and in unpredictable ways. Along the way we encounter the city's most infamous Madam, a seance, a civil rights lawyer, a bone mermaid, a famous Beat poet, a notorious Edinburgh gang, a spy, the literati, artists, thinkers, strippers, the spirit world - until a cosmic agent finally exposes the true horror of the building's longest kept secret. No. 10 Luckenbooth Close hurtles the reader through personal and global history - eerily reflecting modern life today. If Alasdair Gray's Lanark was a masterly imagining of Glasgow, then this is the quintessential novel of Edinburgh at its darkest.' IRVINE WELSH 'A deeply powerful, compellingly vivid novel .
