Their Lips Talk of Mischief
Alan Warner
High up in the Conrad Flats that loom bleakly over Acton, two
future stars of the literary scene - or so they assume - are hard at
work, tapping out words of wit and brilliance between ill-paid jobs
writing captions for the Cat Calendar 1985 and blurbs for trashy novels
with titles like Brothel of the Vampire.

payments, pints and dollops of porridge and pasta, Llewellyn and
Cunningham don't have it too bad: a pub on the corner, a misdirected
parental allowance, and the delightful company
