"It's not uncommon for kids aged fifteen to go boozing in their local pub; it's a part of most of our lives from early on."

from a conversation with Eddie de Oliveira
 
Eddie de Oliveira was born in 1979 to an Argentinian mother of Italian stock and a Brazilian father with ancestors from Scotland. This aristocratic footballing ethnicity has given him a combined total of 10 World Cup wins to celebrate (none of them Scottish). He currently lives outside London. Lucky is his first novel.
