Ever revel in the wonder of your inner world? Ever wonder if ours is a universe that smiles with us when we grow and evolve, and its processes are nurturance to that end? Meet Me at the Apex smiles, and yet it will shake you from your comfort zone and goad you toward transcendence---whatever your path. This novel is hilarious at times and will carry you to heights of joy, and yet is capable of dragging you through pits of sorrow; it is sublime and ethereal, and yet there are moments when it is sensual, raw and earthy; it is iconoclastic and controversial, and yet it celebrates as sacred each person's belief and path. This diary of protagonist Joshua Denton's 3-day stream of consciousness while buckled by illness forces readers to inspect even their most entrenched beliefs, whether God-fearing or atheistic. His hiatus quickly becomes a luring toward epiphany, his path to which is intense processing of events and enigmas.
From the author of The Savage God, a unique memoir of growing old, and a lesson in not going gently into that good night The ponds of Hampstead Heath are small oases; fragments of wild nature nestled in the heart of north-west London. For the best part of his life Al Alvarez – poet, critic, novelist, rock-climber and poker player – has swum in them almost daily. An athlete in his youth, Alvarez chronicles what it is to grow old with humour and fierce honesty – from his relentlessly nagging ankle which makes daily life a struggle, to infuriating bureaucratic battles with the council to keep his disabled person's Blue Badge, the devastating effects of a stroke, and the salvation he finds in the three Ss – Swimming, Sex and Sleep. As Alvarez swims in the ponds he considers how it feels when you begin to miss that person you used to be – to miss yourself. Swimming is his own private form of protest against the onslaught of time; proof to others, and himself, that he's not yet beaten. By turns funny, poetic and indignant, Pondlife is a meditation on love, the importance of life's small pleasures and, above all, a lesson in not going gently in to that good night. _____________________ 'A beautiful unfolding of a story, told in deceptively simple prose but with a great power to move' Sunday Times 'The adrenalin still flows in lively extracts' The Times 'A marvellous book... it has no business to be as invigorating and absorbing – its success is against the odds' Observer

“A sweet romance featuring two characters with painful secrets . . . a gentle and charming story anyone can enjoy” by the author of Summer at the Art Café (The Book Review). Would you take a chance on a bad boy with a leather jacket and a vintage motorbike? That’s the question single mom Jo Morris has to ask herself when she collides with local bike mechanic Ed Griffiths on a rainy Welsh hillside. Working at the Art Café, Jo hears the gossip and is all too aware of Ed’s reputation. But while he’s certainly no angel, there is something about Ed’s daredevil antics that Jo can’t ignore. And as she gets to know him better and watches the kind way he deals with her young son Liam, she begins to wonder—is there more to this ‘bad boy’ than meets the eye? “Truly brilliant! . . . a wonderfully warm, joyful, feel good story. It brings a huge smile to your face reading it and gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside of pure joy and delight.”—Just Kathryn “A lovely, uplifting read. It has some surprises and many moments to make your heart swell.”—Portobello Book Blog
Meet Me on the Moon Seventeen-year-old Joseph "Dubbie" Lawson's life was turned upside down when his grandfather's almost tragic fall down the staircase left him no longer able to run the family farm. Dubbie would go to live with his grandparents full time. Dubbie has been coming to his grandparents' farm for the summer since he was five years old, so living there was nothing new to him. But now he wouldn't go home after the summer ended. Although this is the life Dubbie wanted for himself, he never realized it would come through heartbreaks and tragedies. In the midst of everything going on in his life, Dubbie also finds the love of his life, the girl next door. She had been there the whole time, and Dubbie never knew it. This is the tale of an unforgettable story where a young man is forced to grow up into adulthood as life unfolds before him. In a way that only a C.R. Waters's novel can, love is allowed to grow through heartaches and pain, laughter and sorrows, where a young man's love for his parents and grandparents is deep and the love of two young people grows deeper.
All the Lost Voices is a first-person narrative that vacillates between the narrator’s present condition in a Mexico City brothel and his past experiences growing up fast and frightened in the unforgiving landscape of his hometown, Paterson, New Jersey. The parallel story lines are artfully interwoven creating a sometimes furious, sometimes apologetic exposition that encompasses not only a glimpse into the current psychosis of the protagonist, Tony De Felice, but a rearward view of the process that has brought this madness to surface. Alcoholism, violence, thieving, murder, exile, the imprisonment of his father, the loss of a fragile youth—all are addressed in drunken rants and gentle, often philosophical appeals to the reader, a tempestuous marriage of form and content offset by unexpectedly funny bits of wisdom and hilarious scenes of youthful indiscretion. The novel advances in several directions at once, from Nuevo Laredo to Mexico City to Tuxpan in the present tense, and from Paterson to Florida to Oregon to any and all points of the American map in the past tense, via car, train, plane, and bus. Yet in spite of this motion, the narrator remains emotionally frozen, bound to his past and locked within the parameters of his mind, feverishly writing his way towards an elusive understanding of himself.
Shaun Collins and Clarissa Alba are hometown sweethearts who have been separated by life. Clarissa moved east to pursue a career in advertising, while Shaun headed to Los Angeles to record music at the behest of his musical mentor. For five years, they have had no contact-and a lot can change in five years. Shaun is now a multi-platinum musician, international celebrity, and world-class womanizer who carefully hides the hole in his heart left by Clarissa. Meanwhile, she is an advertising executive in New York City who just ended a relationship with her substitute for Shaun. Much to her dismay, no one can replace her first love. Circumstances bring them both home at the same time, and when their eyes meet on the Riverside dance floor, old feelings rekindle. But they are no longer the same couple that fell in love years before. They've both changed dramatically, and as Shaun prepares to go back on tour, it becomes apparent those differences could tear them apart.
