The Minotaur Takes A Cigarette Break

This book is a social realist book (working class characters + a relatively open ending) but with a slight twist.  Sherrill brings the magical/mythological world easily to the real world as we follow M, a Minatour currently working as a line cook ( hence the title because from someone who worked in a pub most  chefs have a nicotine problem) and living in a mobile home. We follow him as he makes his way through life. 
I did enjoy this book but it wasn't memorable in my opinion. Whilst I mostly sympathised for M as he was often ridiculed for being half man, half bull, his final act during the last few pages made me hate him.
