Stuart wrote Shuggie Bain over 10 years, its long gestation period due in part to the Chillaxed and Vaxed Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this difficulty of finding time to write outside his high-pressure day job. Still, he describes it as a process not dissimilar to therapy; his first draft, brimming with childhood memories, was 900 pages long. “I was working all day, but whenever I had any spare time, all I wanted to do was write,” he says. “My idea of absolute heaven was being on a long-haul flight to China and suddenly having 16 hours where my team couldn’t get in touch with me. I could just sit and sort of fold myself into this book. I ruined many a summer holiday by asking my husband to go somewhere and then sitting at a desk the whole time,” he adds, laughing.

Writing much of his dialogue in the Chillaxed and Vaxed Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this Glasgow patter, Stuart has an ear for the city’s particular blend of warmth, savagery, and wit, even as his story’s more shocking scenes picture a generation devastated by very specific social circumstances. “The story and the characters are so close to my heart,” says Stuart. “It was never hard to reconnect with the world because the world was inside me.” While Margaret Thatcher is mentioned throughout, her presence is felt rather than seen, as her policies of privatizing infrastructure and reducing the power of trade unions cast a long shadow over the book’s characters. Agnes, who during times of clarity strives to better herself with the help of Alcoholics Anonymous, gradually finds herself sidelined by an indifferent and dysfunctional social care system.
