'A beautiful book full of stark truths... Lyrical and evocative, highly recommended' Evie King, author of ASHES TO ADMIN 'Beautifully written' Daily Mail '[An] empathetic, emotional reckoning' Mail on Sunday In a small seaside town, autumn is edging into winter, gulls ride winds over the waves, and two women pass each other on the promenade, as yet unaware of each other's existence. In the nineties Lydia was a teen pop star, posed half naked on billboards everywhere with a lollipop between her lips and no idea how to live, letting the world happen to her. Now, three decades later, Lydia is less and less sure that what happened to her was in the least bit okay. The news cycle runs hot with #MeToo stories, and a famous former lover has emerged with a self-serving apology, asking her to forgive him. Suddenly, the past is full of trapdoors she is desperately trying not to fall through. Joyce, in middle age, has never left home. She still lives with her mother Betty. With their matching

'A beautiful book full of stark truths . . . Lyrical and evocative, highly recommended' Evie King, author of ASHES TO ADMIN'I have GULPED this novel down . . . Birding gave me everything I want in a novel, including a massive, cathartic cry at the end. Achingly poignant, yet ultimately hopeful, with a worn out seaside town I can see so clearly' Jennie Godfrey, author of The List of Suspicious Things'I've had my socks absolutely knocked off (again) by Rose Ruane's latest novel Birding. It made me rage, reflect, howl with laughing, worry and blub. Gentle, strong, important and hopeful. I am in awe and couldn't recommend it more highly' Jessica Fostekew, writer, actor and co-host of The Guilty FeministIn the nineties, Lydia was one half of a teen pop sensation with her best friend Pandora. Posing for mags as innocent yet sexy, girly yet 'in control' - but with no clue how to handle herself - Lydia simply let things happen to her. Now, thirty years later, with #MeToo revelations a daily reality, a famous ex-lover resurfaces with a slick, self-serving apology, demanding forgiveness. Suddenly, Lydia is overwhelmed with memories of a harmful time in her life that refuses to leave her in peace.Meanwhile, Joyce has never left home and the suffocating grip of her mother, Betty. For decades, their lives have been a bizarre symphony of matching dresses, flawless makeup, and a rigid daily routine. A single misstep can send Betty spiralling, so Joyce has always walked the line perfectly. But now, as middle age sets in and the menopause burns through her, something unfamiliar is rising inside Joyce - a whispered what if . . .Against the faded backdrop of a once-grand seaside resort, these two women are trapped in worlds of their own making. But as they both confront their pasts - the toxic men, the forgotten dreams, the twisted expectations - fate is about to throw them together, as they wrestle with the question: Can we ever truly take flight on broken wings?

Varken Bildning Eller Piano - Vantrivs Borgerligheten I Kulturen?
Varken bildning eller piano - vantrivs borgerligheten i kulturen? red: Lars Anders Johansson Under första halvan av det förra seklet betraktades borgerligheten som det kulturbärande samhällsskiktet. Sedan dess har någonting hänt. I Varken bildning eller piano tar åtta författare sig an frågan om borgerlighetens till synes komplicerade förhållande till kulturlivet: Therese Bohman, Anna Brodow Inzaina, Torbjörn Elensky, Tobias Harding, Lars Anders Johansson, Jens Liljestrand och Henrik Nerlund. Vad är ens borgerlighet idag? Finns det en borgerlig kultur och har den i så fall någon framtid? ---------------------------------------------
