Bonkers: My Life in Laughs by Jennifer Saunders - the hilarious, touching life story of the iconic comedian and national treasure.
Bonkers: My Life in Laughs Jennifer Saunders' comic creations have brought joy to millions. From Comic Strip to Comic Relief, from Bolly-swilling Edina in Ab Fab to her takes on Madonna or Mamma Mia, her characters are household names.
A superbly controlled emotional thriller of passion, betrayal and conscience, set in post-War Germany, soon to be made into a major film.
Carol Anshaw's Aftermath explores the after effects of one night's terrible trauma on three siblings over 25 years. It's garnered fabulous reviews across the board and our Devonshire based reading group who reviewed it in November, were all impressed by the quality of the writing and thought it 'an engaging, enjoyable and interesting read'
Scott Hutchins' debut A Working Theory of Love is laugh-out-loud novel about modern relationships.
Set in contemporary San Francisco, where anything goes (and regularly does), this recklessly witty, formidably funny, outrageously honest novel captures the exquisite agony of the most important relationships of our twenty-first century lives - across the generations and between the sexes. And also with computers that talk.
