When his friend is stabbed, Mackie joins a gang and takes a fatal act of random revenge. It leads him to confront the grieving mother of his victim. Fleeto is hard-hitting, contemporary and poetic. A Scottish re-invention of Greek tragic form. Wee Andy runs parallel to events in 'Fleeto', using equally intense poetic language. It tells how a surgeon struggles to save Wee Andy's brutally slashed face, and the extraordinary course of action the boy's mother takes to protect him.
