Love + hate : stories and essays

Kureishi, Hanif2014
Books
An inventive, thought-provoking and characteristically bold collection of short fiction and essays from Hanif Kureishi. The collection ends with a bravura piece of very personal reportage about the conman who stole Kureishi's life savings - a man who provoked both admiration and disgust, obsession and revulsion, love and hate.
