Cabbie with a Dangerous Mind

Billy has elevated mood swings and uncontrollable depression, and because his manic states often turn into psychotic episodes, he begins to suspect that the label ‘bipolar’ is just a cop-out from the medical fraternity because they don’t know what to do with him.

He realises he’s possibly a psychotic depressive or even a schizophrenic, and yet he has no one to turn to. His one love is Jelly, a drug addict, although neither of them realise how much they’ve come to rely on each other. Billy and Jelly are two lost souls in the mad landscape of East London, but if Billy can get her off the gear then life will flow easier for both of them, for Jelly, in her own unique way, has a calming effect on Billy’s psyche

Billy’s life is unravelling fast. He’s prone to violent rages, and his distortion can change whilst driving as time slows down and speeds up again and buildings starts to move.

Billy views his life with intelligence, and the advice that you really shouldn’t be getting in his cab is sound. Billy has suicidal thoughts whilst driving.

The book is peppered with characters; oddballs, weirdoes, comedians, eccentrics, head cases, prima donnas and hard cases …… and they’re just the drivers! ‘
