It's one of my favourite books. You'll be familiar with the setting from your Cornwall trips: I've read everything by Patrick Gale, prefer the Cornwall ones to those set in Winchester. His two short story collections are much darker, maybe more to your taste?
You might also like Rough Music or The Facts of Life as they are quite complex.
Notes From an Exhibition also reads well as a companion to Atwood's Cat's Eye, in terms of looking back at an artist's life and work.
Gale also did an edition of Literary Landscapes on Cornwall recently for Radio 4

I have Rough Music on my book shelf and will read it at some point in the future. I enjoyed the writing style immensely, the genre is just not something i read regularly. I will look into his short stories :)
