"Charlies Says shows the demise of a man living in a city on the brink of a breakdown. Exposing stark images of drug-addled lives in Bradford, Fehintola charts the highs and lows experienced in the badlands of Britain. From the strip searching of prostitutes to the perpetual craving and guilt that became his emotional currency, Charlie Says is a high-speed ride through inner-city life, where the neon lights illuminate dirt and desire, loss and redemption with equal indifference.

By turns exhilirating, shocking and sad, Fehintola's story spotlights a desolate and dangerous side to city life from which few who are sucked in are lucky enough to escape."--BOOK JACKET.
