Litten builds a criss-crossing patchwork of Hull denizens with a deft eye to detail, and to character -- to the subtle joys and heartbreaks surrounding the Hull Fair. Scream If You Want To Go Faster's cast of characters are both imperfect and beautifully human, and the hard lives they carve out, the moments each live are a the work of a sharp and natural storyteller, one keenly aware of how close most lives are to rattling of the rails and how it looks, sounds, tastes, and above all feels when it does.

I found this novel hard going at first. A lot of characters and scenarios came racing at me thick and fast.

I really don't understand what made this book so compelling, intellectually, but I could hardly put it down. Lots of stories of apparently relatively 'normal' Hull folks and their intersecting storylines, over Hull Fair weekend, shortly after the 2007 floods.
