George Tucker and April Jefferson have never met but they share a secret.

Born the same day fifty years apart, in the same town in Florida, both are battling demons.

George is African-American – now living in Atlanta, having run from Jim Crow – only it seems you can't outrun the past. April is a white teenager terrified she will end up like her mother.

 George’s story is set over fifty years, April’s over a single year…  yet their destinies are tied up together. They must meet… but how is the troubled teenager April the key to unlocking the secrets of George’s past?

Behind the death of a person, a building or a place, life goes on.

Here is a strong sense of many places: rural North Wales, a quarry, the woods, a Welsh Woollen Mill storeroom, the banks of the Atchafalaya River, a claustrophobic swampland shack, the Texas panhandle and more.

And there are people. Quinn maybe protects two brothers, from their dead Mam’s sexual secrets. Febby plans her escape. Mostyn has to please his publisher and Mary Mc Allister still nurses the Infant Jesus years after her own baby died.

Anne Forrest paints colourful word pictures of these people and places in There’s More to Life than Death.

Your passport to an Irish boyhood in a less frantic, more adventurous age, reliving a time of skinned knees and home-made go-karts, clean dirt, Saturday night baths, and the kind of sweets that’d nearly cost you your teeth. Back when it always seemed to snow at Christmas, the summers were long and golden, and the friendships were forever.

Eamon O’Leary gives us a glimpse of uncomplicated childhood in I’m a Big Boy Now.

Butterlies and other stories by Jenny Palmer

 

Imaginative, witty, topical stories with unexpected twists and turns.

The book portrays snippets of everyday life which contain a deeper meaning than is immediately apparent. There are stories about women who try to prove they are not invisible, people escaping from a cult, coincidental encounters with long lost friends, historical characters who reassert themselves into the present, scenarios which foreshadow what is to come, the danger of relying on other people’s philosophy rather than one’s own, alongside suggestions on how best to survive Christmas or deal with unwanted intruders.

In Butterflies and other stories, Jenny Palmer writes from the vantage point of her home in rural Lancashire. She reflects on the turbulent times in which we live, on how people cope in their everyday lives, whether it be living through lockdown, escaping from a cult, dealing with the ‘hostile environment,’ having a pre-payment meter installed, or preparing for an uncertain future. Maintaining a lightness of touch, the stories are imbued with a sense of the healing power of nature and an appreciation of its beauty.

Tales of the Unelected by Dan Corry

 

 

Visit the hidden Whitehall world of the unelected special advisers.

Encounter their hopes, dreams, rivalries and compromises as they face the challenge of doing the right thing in a role full of tensions. See how they struggle with the civil service, accusations of being the source of leaking, politicians who need to up their game, negotiating with No 10, finding time with the PM, and worrying about physical attacks on their Secretary of State. All this as they try to keep some semblance of family life intact.

Dan Corry entertains and informs us well in Tales of the Unelected.

---

“There are so many tensions and emotional conflicts in being a special adviser and Dan Corry takes you into that world through this fascinating collection of stories.”
Ed Balls (former special adviser, minister and Shadow Chancellor)

“It’s an honour to be a special adviser, as I was, but most of what has been written about them is of the sensational type. Here, in all its everyday glory, is a real feel of what it is like.”
Ayesha Hazarika, former special advisor

“Dan Corry’s subtle and engrossing short stories are the real thing, a window on the largely hidden lives of the fixers and policymakers of the political world, the notorious advisers. His compelling authority is no accident: reader, he was one.”
Robert Peston (Political Editor at ITN)
