Sinopsis

Lilly’s Album, an 87,000-word novel, is a powerful story of love, war, and remembrance. This unusual novel, written by me, a Holocaust survivor's son, is based on the trials and tribulations of my family that took place between the first and second world wars. It is a heart-rending tale of the journey from youthful hopes and dreams to the edge of despair and eventual death. The story is about burning love, the futility of war, and the extermination of innocent people because of different beliefs.Based on a true story, it took me three years of research and uncounted travels to Poland. It is not an easy book to read and is geared towards adult readers.

    In Flood, Jessica Mookherjee inhabits several identities in her 'bone-framed coat'. With overarching themes of migration, otherness, sexual awakening, and maternal mental illness, we encounter the aftermath of catastrophe, of loss and being lost.
    Here, 'time folds us into origami boats' – and the poems swell with the surging tides of youth and of becoming, of what we inherit and what we forge as our own path – and what happens when we jump into the depths and experience life in full-flow. Alive with wildlife and nightlife, mythmaking and bad romance, the everyday and the otherworldly, Flood is a prodigious debut collection from a truly distinctive and vital voice, now reissued in this new edition by Nine Arches Press.

    They say you can’t catch a fish with a hook.  
     
    It’s 1925, a world on the cusp of change. Hitler has published Mein Kampf and Mussolini has shut down the free press in Italy. 
     
    Three friends meet on a Scottish estate for a weekend of salmon fishing and convivial conversation over brandy and cigars: Winston Churchill, future world leader, ‘Bendor’, 2nd Duke of Westminster and Coco Chanel, iconic fashion entrepreneur. The narrative develops into a visceral account interspersed with sharp and insightful humour, revealing two men whose deep friendship is divided by their profound political differences, as each of them tries to navigate an uncertain world. 
     
    And then there is Coco Chanel, also an accomplished angler and Bendor’s mistress. She enters wearing furs and exits wearing waders. 
     
    In Winston & The Duke, Rory Fellowes delivers a thought-provoking play that invites the audience to question: 
    Have we learned anything from history?Should we pay attention to past events rather than purge them for comfort’s sake?Can controversial friendships exist openly and provoke change in today’s political arena?  
     
    That is for the listener to decide. 
     
    Winston & The Duke was developed through WIN: Writers Innovative Network and was directed by Maureen Payne-Hahner.
