Following on from the success of Liar, Liar, Alan McMonagles latest book of short stories, Psychotic Episodes, offers the reader a feast of wistfulness. His characters' flaws and idiosyncrasies are exposed and celebrated; the anti hero reigns supreme. In Physoctic Episodes the characters seemingly exist on the cusp of normality - the crossover point between experience and expectation. McMonagle's writes with comic lightness of the mundanity of everyday life and tempers it with the dark reality of yearning for things to be different.
