Barr Damian: The Two Roberts

The Two Roberts

A GQ BOOK OF THE YEARFINALIST FOR THE ORWELL PRIZESAnnouncing the arrival of a major new talent, an astonishing work of social history which captures Black gay Britain as never before. 'In this seminal book Okundaye gives us juicy dialogue, tears and laughter, and vivid landscapes of memory.'MENDEZ, author of Rainbow Milk'Extraordinary.' SHON FAYE'Groundbreaking.' GUARDIAN'Beautifully woven.' i NEWS'Gorgeous, gossipy and warm.' EVENING STANDARD 'A rich, vital story.' FRIEZE'A triumph.' GAY TIMES***In this landmark work, Jason Okundaye meets an elder generation of Black gay men and finds a spirited community full of courage, charisma and good humour, hungry to tell its past - of nightlife, resistance, political fights, loss, gossip, sex, romance and vulgarity. Through their conversations he seeks to reconcile the Black and gay narratives of Britain, narratives frequently cleaved as distinct and unrelated. Tracing these men's journeys and arrivals to South London through the seventies, eighties and nineties from the present day, Okundaye relays their stories with rare compassion, listening as they share intimate memories and reflect upon their lives. They endured and fought against the peak of the AIDS epidemic, built social groups and threw underground parties; they went to war with institutions (and with each other) and created meaning within a society which was often indifferent to their existence. Revolutionary Acts renders a singular portrait of Britain from the perspective of those buffeted by the winds of marginalisation and discrimination. It is a portrait marked by resilience and self-determination, inspired by the love and beauty Black men have found in each other. ***'A sparkling book that is all the more remarkable for being the author's first. Okundaye is an outstanding guide to what it means to be black and gay in Britain, providing a perspective to the last four decades that is as revelatory as it is important.'PETER FRANKOPAN'This groundbreaking debut tells the stories of seven radicals who were among the first out Black gay men in Britain . . . Okundaye's research and interviews completely recast key moments in Black British history . . . We should be grateful that he has managed to capture a vital moment that - at so many points - could have been lost for ever.'LANRE BAKARE, GUARDIAN

Ted. Dirg. Alex. Biggy. Marc. Dennis. Ajamu. Revolutionary Acts is an intimate portrait of seven men who serve as a living testament to the Black gay British experience. We see these men as they strive to establish some of the first Black LGBT community spaces; look on as they struggle to wrest control of their stories from the mainstream media; learn of their responses to the devastation of the AIDs crisis; and understand the vital place of nightlife and radical sex activism within the scene. Ultimately, this is the story of how they have lived and loved, fought and fucked, bonded and cared for one another. Through sensitive interviews and original archival research, Jason Okundaye invites us to walk through Brixton, reaching back to the 1970s from the present day, and in doing reclaims a fragile history, a history rarely recorded. Championing deeply personal engagement with those who have paved the way before us, Revolutionary Acts reveals the power of resilience in the face of hostile circumstances and heralds the desire for happiness, joy and brotherhood as a radical act.

Love & Brotherhood in Black Gay Britain

Revolutionary Acts

Untitled James Reece 8

A stirring exploration of war, race and belonging from the Nobel-prize winning author of Beloved. An angry and self-loathing veteran of the Korean War, Frank Money finds himself back in racist America after enduring trauma on the front lines that left him with more than just physical scars. As Frank revisits the memories from childhood and the war that leave him questioning his shattered sense of self, he unearths the courage he thought he'd lost forever. It is with incantatory power that Morrison's language reveals an apparently defeated man finding his manhood - and, finally, his home. 'No other writer in my lifetime, or perhaps ever, has married so completely an understanding of the structures of power with knowledge of the human heart' Kamila Shamsie, GuardianWinner of the PEN/Saul Bellow award for achievement in American fiction

It's never too late to rewrite your story...

The Bookshop of New Beginnings

Every family has a secret. The mega-rich Pallanders are used to luxury - a castle in the Scottish Highlands, a villa in Tuscany, a billion-dollar fortune and an island in the Caribbean - but their perfect life is about to be shattered. Every father has a favourite. Sebastian Pallander dies, leaving a pitiful amount of money to his wife and children. His family fight over the scraps as old rivalries and bitter jealousies come to the surface. And when Pallander's son is killed in mysterious circumstances, everyone suspects foul play. Every killer has a motive. After a desperate race for survival, the relatives gather at their estate to weather the storm. They all begin to wonder: who will be next? Where has all their money gone? And will any of them get what they truly deserve?

The Estate

"Set in rural Armenia in the aftermath of war, these heartwarming short stories show people finding hope and purpose again"--

Set in an Armenian mountain village immediately after the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in the early 1990s, these thirty-one linked short stories trace the interconnected lives of villagers tending to their everyday tasks, engaging in quotidian squabbles, and celebrating small joys against a breathtaking landscape. Yet the setting, suspended in time and space, belies unspeakable tragedy: every character contends with an unbearable burden of loss. The war rages largely off the book’s pages, appearing only in fragmented flashbacks. Abgaryan’s stories focus on how, in the war’s aftermath, the survivors work, as individuals and as a community, to find a way forward. Written in Abgaryan’s signature style that weaves elements of Armenian folk tradition into her prose, these stories of community, courage, and resilience celebrate human life, where humor and love and hope prevail in unthinkable circumstances.

Fated Winds and Promising Seas

'Beautifully written' Michelle Paver 'Stunning' Rebecca Netley'Eerie' Naomi Kelsey 'Compulsive' Martin MacInnesWhat the years have buried, is about to be exposed... The gloomy fortress of Gallondean lies on the Scottish coast. Local legend has it that if the heirs to the house hear the howling of a spectral hound nearby, their death will quickly follow. The current owner of the house is Jacob Beresford who, up until the unexpected death of his father, had never set foot within its crumbling walls. Jacob, already haunted by his own demons, has no need of more ghosts, but as the First World War staggers through its last terrible months and he uncovers unsettling details of his new home's past, the shadows seem to be growing around him. Then he meets Esther, a young volunteer nurse serving at nearby Roddinglaw, an elegant country house requisitioned for use as a temporary hospital ward. Esther, widowed in the early months of the war, dreams of being a poet as she assists the men around her, some of whom are struggling to come to terms with permanent, life-changing injuries. But is it one of the soldiers who appears to have only a minor injury, whose life comes to intersect with both Esther and Jacob in horrifying and unexpected ways. Danger stalks the woods and coast around them, but it soon becomes clear that the gravest threats are within.... Both unsettling and evocative, deeply atmospheric and brilliantly engaging The Unrecovered is an unforgettable historical debut inspired by a real life legend and marks the arrival of an outstanding new talent.
