By Dave McGowan

Earwigging

Earwigging is a journey, never lingering for too long in any one place. It is the written equivalent of walking through a train station or waiting for a friend in a pub, conversations drifting in and out of earshot, only ever in part and neither beginning nor resolved. It is the overheard world. It is poignant, it is as unreal as only reality can be. It is hilarious.

“This is the real stuff.  Stories from and about the street, from the soft belly of hard places.  Stories that make you wince, laugh and wonder.  A great collection from a writer of wit and talent.” – Kit de Waal

“Dave McGowan is a trenchant observer of everyday life. These pieces are moving, insightful, hilarious and tragic by turn. Stories of London life in all its messy complexity – and a lesson to watch what you say, because you never know who is listening.” — Julia Bell

“Let Dave McGowan be your guide to a hidden seam of city life. He is part flaneur, part fly-on-the-wall, but be warned: once you’ve tuned in to the chatter you may not be able to turn it off.” — Tony White
