About this ebook
A troubled, disturbing but bleakly funny play from a leading writer of Channel 4's Shameless and Skins.
Fanny and Faggot presents two distinct moments in the life of Mary Bell: her trial when accused of the murder of two small boys, and her escape from the open prison in 1977, when she spent the weekend on the run in Blackpool and lost her virginity.
