    I’ll write it here too – is it Butcher Boy?

    Yes – this is the Butcher Boy – by Patrick McCabe.

    Check!

    For a second I was going to write Patrick McGrath, but then thought that wasn’t right. I saw the movie, did not read the book.

    Wait – now I’m insecure – is it McGrath?

    I think it’s McCabe … but not sure suddenly.

    I think you’re right. Patrick McGrath writes very dark books, too, but in a different style. He wrote Asylum and, er, other things that I can’t remember now. (Something about a burn victim in love?) He’s married to a well-known British stage actress, Maria Aitken.
