Lenny Henry
For each book sold 50p will be paid to Comic Relief. Published in partnership with Comic Relief, Lenny Henry tells the inspiring story of the talented British comedian determined to make the world laugh. Ever since he was small, Lenny Henry wanted to be a comedian. At home in Dudley, England, he would pretend to be the characters he watched on TV, copying scenes from his favourite shows to entertain his six brothers and sisters. But life wasn't always easy, and at school Lenny found himself the subject of racist bullying—until he figured out a way to beat the bullies using humour. This was when he realised he had a gift: he could make people laugh. He shot to fame aged 16 and the following decades were full of great successes, such as his hugely popular TV programme The Lenny Henry Show. Lenny co-founded the charity Comic Relief in response to a terrible famine in East Africa. Over 25 years later, Lenny and the charity remain committed to creating a just world, free from poverty,

Lanny
"In strömmade ljudet av en sång, varm av hans levande väsen. Mitt sjungande barn som kommer med gåvor. Det tar en liten stund innan jag förstår att det inte är han. Lanny?" Efter hyllade Sorgen bär fjäderdräkt följer Max Porter upp med en efterlängtad roman som är lika osannolik som den är djärv, märklig och fantastisk. En salig blandning av fabel, folksaga och roman med inspiration från muntlig berättartradition. Resultatet är ren magi.Inte långt från London ligger en liten by. Den här byn tillhör människorna som bor här, och de som bott här under hundratals år. Den tillhör Englands mystiska förflutna och förbryllande nutid. Den tillhör Mad Pete, ensamvarg och konstnär. Gamla Peggy som hänger över grinden och skvallrar med alla som går förbi. Den tillhör familjer som är borta sedan generationer, och sådana som bara nyligen flyttat hit. Den tillhör Lanny, pojken som plötsligt försvinner spårlöst. Men också Dead Papa Toothwort som vaknat från sin slummer djupt inne i skogen. Dead Papa Toothwort som lyssnar till dem allihop. "Det är svårt att hitta ord för hur mycket jag älskade Lanny. Så här bra böcker dyker inte upp särskilt ofta. Det är en roman som inte liknar någon annan, det är uppiggande, oroande och rolig läsning som griper tag. Varje sida är pur glädje. Det här är en bok du ska sätta i händerna på alla du känner och säga Läs!" - Maggie O'Farrell "Porters lyriska stil, intelligens och emotionella skärpa gör Lanny till en underbar liten bok som du kommer bli frestad att läsa om så fort den tar slut." - The Telegraph "Max Porters andra roman är en fabel, ett kollage, en dramatisk kör, en jublande smältdegel av ord." - The Guardian "Lanny är ett underbart verk, genljudande och kusligt och fyllt med drömlika, stilla ögonblick som rör sig mot en fängslande, livfull klimax." - The Independent "Trots att jag läst den två gånger misstänker jag att Lanny kommer att vara en roman jag återvänder till igen, bara för att absorbera sällsamheten i berättelsen, skickligheten i strukturen, äktheten i dialogen och den eteriska mystiken som omger bokens titelfigur." - The Irish Times Max Porter inledde sin karriär med Sorgen bär fjäderdräkt. Debuten hyllades av en enhällig press runt om i världen och har snarast blivit ett fenomen i Storbritannien. Max är född 1981 och bosatt i Bath med fru och barn. Han har flera års erfarenhet som bokhandlare och förläggare på Granta Books, nu skriver han på heltid.
