Russell T Davies 'Intoxicating' Irish Times London June 2019. Maggie is 30 pregnant and
broke. Faced with moving back to the home town she fought to escape she's wondering if having
a baby with boyfriend Ed will be the last spontaneous act of her life. Ed meanwhile is
harbouring secret dreams of his own. Phil hates his office job and is living for the weekend
while falling for his housemate Keith. But there's a problem: Keith already has a boyfriend.
Then there's Rosaleen Phil's mother who's tired of feeling like a side character in her own
life. She's just been diagnosed with cancer and is travelling to London to tell Phil if she
can ever get hold of him. As Saturday night approaches in a city on the brink of political
upheaval all their lives are set to change forever. It's the hottest summer on record and the
weekend is about to begin. What readers are saying... 'I've had a week long book hangover. Read
it!' ¿¿¿¿¿ 'A book I will carry with me in my heart' ¿¿¿¿¿ 'The best book I've read in recent
years' ¿¿¿¿¿ 'My life got just a bit richer from having read this book' ¿¿¿¿¿ 'I absolutely
loved it every word' ¿¿¿¿¿
