Late Night on Watling Street

In this collection of stories, Bill Naughton portrays a selection of characters, including truck drivers, Irish itinerants, and lamp lighters, in his inimitable pithy style. While each tale can be enjoyed on its own, together they provide a wonderful picture of a postwar and bygone era. With descriptions so graphic the characters could be based on real people, the lives, loves, hopes and disappointments of Naughton's characters will keep you gripped till the last.
