Little Green Man by Simon Armitage
A funny, touching, sometimes alarming account of male friendship and the rivalries that drive men apart. Separated from his wife, Barney reunites his childhood friends for a game of dare - at stake, a jade statuette worth [pound]750,000 according to Barney. As the game goes on, weaknesses are exposed and childhood traumas relived. Suspenseful, gripping and intelligently crafted, Little Green Man explores the darker side of men and their relationships. 'Sensitive not sentimental...real humour, horror, tension and tenderness' Mirror
