Authors & Reviews
Book Review: Precious You by Helen Monks Takhar
I have a confession to make. When I’m perusing the shelves in my local bookshop, I usually pass on the section marked ‘Thriller’.
Book Review: Refugee Tales III
I would urge anyone with a social conscience to get a copy of Refugee Tales III, published by Comma Press, as quickly as possible.
“I was writing, somehow I was writing.” Northern Soul’s Lyndsey Skinner on winning the Sid Chaplin award
On the wall above my desk is a quote from Virginia Woolf.
Book Review: The Disappeared by Amy Lord
As the dominoes continue their haphazard topple in the wake of the EU Referendum, as a blowhard struts vaingloriously in the Oval Office, and as right-wing populism slithers out of its bunker and back into the daylight, it’s difficult to discount the disquieting suspicion that these are dystopian times.
Book Review: Animals Eat Each Other by Elle Nash
This might sound weird but I love reading books where I spend time with objectionable fictional people.
Book Review – Seaside Special: Postcards from The Edge, edited by Jenn Ashworth
Last night my wife couldn’t sleep so I read her a story. Then I had to read her another one because the first one wasn’t conducive to restful dreams.
Book Review: Don’t Hold My Head Down by Lucy-Anne Holmes
Sex sells. But if you expect Don’t Hold My Head Down to be a titillating read full of soft-core anecdotes, then you’ll be (somewhat) disappointed.
“Progress will win.” Journalist and author Paul Mason talks to Northern Soul
Paul Mason’s latest book, Clear Bright Future: A Radical Defence of the Human Being, comes in at 300 pages followed by 20 pages of notes then a delicious 36-page index (Marx and Marxism fills a page).
Book Review: Water Shall Refuse Them by Lucie McKnight Hardy
Book Review: Alan Turing’s Manchester by Jonathan Swinton
On the face of it, Manchester’s claims to Alan Turing are slender.
