Five stories by Alex Morrall and Man Booker Shortlisted Clare Morrall
Robert Anderson is the first of his brothers to make it past seventeen. How does that affect him? Does he expect to die soon too?
Refugee Anna latches onto the girl in class who reminds her of her confident sister, left behind in a warzone. But she doesn't understand playground politics as much as she understands the pulses of electricity in science class. Can she work out how to fit in?
Follow these characters and others, exploring themes of regret, and isolation in this collaboration between Alex Morrall (‘A hugely talented writer’ - Mary Rowen) and Man Booker Shortlisted, Clare Morrall.
ACCLAIM FOR OTHER BOOKS BY THE MORRALLS:
'Breathtaking and moving, Helen and the Grandbees [Alex Morrall] is a novel that bravely explores themes of familial discord, race and love in modern Britain. It is a book that immediately gripped me, compelling me to keep turning the pages well into the night. Morrall writes with confidence, poise, and a sense of humour to match. At times heartbreaking and heartwarming, this is a novel readers won't soon forget. A riveting debut.' Awais Khan, author of In the Company of Strangers
Astonishing Splashes of Colour [Clare Morrall] is extremely well written and compulsively readable. At her very first attempt, Morrall has written a genuinely solid and satisfying work of fiction, skilfully plotted and fielding a cast of fully realised and individualised characters. More, please. ― The Sunday Times
Genre: Literary Fiction
