Keith Waterhouse - Billy Liar

A little bit dated, and you forget that the protagonist is only in his teens. Gets caught up in the little lies that he conjures up.


“I turn over a new leaf every day. But the blots show through,”

"frowning women, their black scratched handbags crammed with half-digested grievances, pushed through the vegetable stalls to the steps of the rates office"
