  Arnold Bennett was born in 1867 in Hanley one of the six towns that formed the Potteries that later joined together to become Stoke on Trent; the area in which most of his works are located. For a short time he worked for his solicitor father before realising that to advance his life he would need to become his own man. Moving to London at twenty-one he obtained work as a solicitor’s clerk and gradually moved into a career of journalism. At the turn of the century he turned full time to writing and shortly thereafter in 1903 he moved to Paris and in 1908 published to great acclaim The Old Wives Tale. With this his reputation was set. Clayhanger and The Old Wives Tale are perhaps his greatest and most lauded novels.

  Some families leave you money. Others leave you scars. 
  Based on a true story, Paper Roses is a sweeping, emotionally resonant novel from the sister of Traciii Show Hutsona--the New York Times-featured serial con artist-about family secrets, inherited trauma, and the long shadow of betrayal. 
  When Abigail Jones learns of her sister Nikki's third arrest, she's pulled into a spiral of questions: Was it fate, family, or something buried even deeper? As Abigail begins to piece together the past, she uncovers a trail of silence and survival that stretches across continents and generations. 
  From a 1940s Moroccan household where a young maid bears witness to the origins of a generational wound, to the sun-washed suburbs of 1970s California, and finally to 2023-told through podcast transcripts, court documents, and splintered memory-Paper Roses follows Abigail's search for answers, her confrontation with the sister she thought she knew, and her reckoning with a legacy neither of them could escape. 
  A haunting story of loyalty and the cost of breaking free, Paper Roses is perfect for readers of The Vanishing Half, Little Fires Everywhere, and The Paper Palace.
