Stuart Murray


I had visions once of myself as Glasgow's Bukowski, visions that in retrospect I'm glad I didn't pursue with greater purpose. But I recently stumbled upon this guy, who seems to be staking a claim.

Sample book titles: In Pubs, 7 Week Filing Job, People I've Met While Working...

He does simple but well-observed portraits of old men drinking and co-workers in shit jobs, with a bit of Tom Leonard in the mix too. He even worked for the post office.

Gaun yirsel.
