A living, breathing, talking head, with a rude, sharp tongue and an evil sense of humour. It knows all your darkest thoughts and it's not afraid to say what it thinks...to anybody. That's what happens to eleven-year-old Richard Westlake, and life becomes very, very complicated. Part thriller, part horror, part comedy - this is one of the most riveting novels about fear and friendship that you will ever read.
How would you feel if you woke up and found another head growing out of your neck?

Andy Mulligan won the 2011 Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, and his international bestseller, Trash, is now a major film - directed by Stephen Daldry and with screenplay by Richard Curtis.
'[A] simple, funny and very engaging premise ... Mulligan rewrites tragedy as a triumph, and turns the story into a neat way to explore friendship and tolerance.' -- Josh Lacey Guardian 'Mulligan certainly delivers in this extraordinary examination of grief ... A highly original, emotionally-charged black comedy/thriller. A worthy successor to Mulligan's excellent Trash.' -- Sally Morris Daily Mail
Andy Mulligan was brought up in the south of London. He worked as a theatre director for ten years before travels in Asia prompted him to retrain as a teacher. He has taught English and drama in India, Brazil, the Philippines and the UK. He now divides his time between London and Manila.
