Publisher's Summary
Bloomsbury presents Pig Iron by Benjamin Myers, read by Ralph Ineson.
WINNER OF THE GORDON BURN PRIZE
An unflinching portrait of contemporary Traveller culture by the award-winning author of The Gallows Pole
John-John wants to escape his past. But the legacy of brutality left by his boxer father, King of the Gypsies, Mac Wisdom, overshadows his life. His new job as an ice cream man should offer freedom, but instead pulls him into the dark recesses of a northern town where his family name is mud. When he attempts to trade prejudice and parole officers for the solace of the rural landscape, Mac’s bloody downfall threatens John-John’s very survival.
