Norman Miller used to be one of Fleet Street's finest.Now in middle age,burned out,victim of a 'spiritual emergency',he
no longer gets the good stories.His beat is the railway embankment,the tower-block entrance,the playing-field perimeter and other scenes of the latest nail-bomb or child-snatch or brutal sex death.
Separated from his wife and children,his life,like his trade,is permeated by decay and death.A soft toy,taken from a roadside memorial to a young child,is his only comfort and companion.But he is not alone in his predicament.
Heath Hawkins is a veteran snapper, addicted to images of anguish and violence.Relegated to covering the same stories as Miller,Hawkins carries his own
perverted reminders of childhood.No longer
able (or concerned) to distinguish between
guilt and innocence,fact or fabrication, their only commitment is to bringing home the 'smudges' and 'gloat quotes',the stories of murder and defilement that daily assault our sense of collective innocence.
'fullalove' is a magnificent,brooding novel of image and memory,violence and decay,by one of the finest writers of our time.
