Slum Boy by Juano Diaz

An utterly inspiring story of a young boy's self-discovery through art while growing up in the slums of Glasgow in the 1980s.
What a brave and powerful storyIf you like Shuggie Bain and Damian Barr then Slumboy is for you -- Lemn Sissay
Fans of (Douglas) Stuart and (Damian) Barr will pounce on this startling debut. Compulsively readable, it's Dickensian in its rich cast of Glaswegian characters -- Patrick Gale
Powerful and beautifully written... Juano Diaz's elegant and heartbreaking memoir immediately brings to mind Douglas Stuart's Booker-winning Shuggie Bain * Guardian *
A powerful and at times harrowing memoir. Slum Boy is a remarkable and moving tale of survival. * Times Literary Supplement *
