A love song to a loveless Teesside, Ten Storey Love Song is a ferocious slab of concrete prose peppered with beauty and delivered with glorious abandon.Spanning one dynamite paragraph, Ten Storey Love Song follows Bobby the Artist's rise to stardom and ensuing, horrific drug psychosis. Bobby - the so-called 'love child of Keith Haring and Basquiat', is holed-up in a Middlesbrough tower block working on his canvases under the influence of pills-on-toast, acid-on-crackers and Francis Bacon. When Bent Lewis, a famous art dealer and mover-shaker from that London appears, Bobby and friends are sent on a sweaty adventure of self-discovery, hedonism and violence involving a 2.5cm-head curved claw hammer.
