  <default_description>&quot;What&#8217;s allergic to milk, collects comics, sells speed, likes The Fall and lives in Brixton? Alby Starvation, the first true British anti-hero of the giro generation. A strange and wonderful story, I&#8217;ve yet to meet someone who has not enjoyed it.&quot; NME

Your doctor refuses to believe you&#8217;re allergic to just about everything, especially milk, there&#8217;s a megalomaniac professor digging a hole outside your flat, your small stake in the amphetamine market in Brixton is being threatened by a mysterious Chinese man and the Milk Marketing Board have taken out a contract on your life.

Welcome to the bizarre, obsessive world of Alby Starvation.

A world full of shop-lifting, death-threats, paranoia and video game arcades, and Alby&#8217;s frantic struggle to avoid being shot provides the hilarious and engaging back-drop for all this.</default_description>
