Season's Greetings
On December 18th 2018 steelworker Ian Lewis awoke to find a stunning piece of street art on the side of his garage. A few days later Banksy claimed "Season's Greetings" as his first ever artwork in Wales and the World descended on Taibach, Port Talbot to see the most notorious artist in the World's latest creation.

Following the highs and lows of the steelworker's time with a Banksy, this entertaining first person account, reveals the gritty truth about what it's really like when Banksy pays a visit to a wall owned by you. Featuring a host extraordinary characters, all drawn to Banksy's iconic artwork, this colourful memoir captures a unique perspective on the street art scene in the UK - and what Banksy's art means to the ordinary people of an industrial town like Port Talbot.

From Legend
Sober, serious, and driven, Logan Hale is the highest peace officer in Beldenridge, and he knows his city better than anyone: the labyrinthine streets, the vaulted architecture, and all the dark corners where tales of mutations and a vicious enemy still linger like hushed secrets. Logan is quick to dismiss these accounts as part of a storied past with which he'd rather not contend, but when a suicide investigation leads him to believe there's something more sinister at hand, he questions whether that near-forgotten lore isn't the stuff of legend after all.
Mr. Mouthful
Big Talent, Huge Ego, and an Enormous… Everything. Josh- After years of hard work I finally landed my dream job as a musician with a major orchestra. When our new conductor with a name too hard to pronounce strutted on to the stage for the first time, he oozed a confident and cocky sex appeal that captivated me and every other person present. I was used to being the wallflower, the boy always picked last for the team. So when he demanded I meet him after work for a private rehearsal, I was shocked. Of course I went, only to discover my new conductor was a bit handsy, if you know what I mean. At first I thought I was reading too much into it, but the chemistry sparking between us was real. ...
A Book of Death and Fish
"A bright book and a brilliant book." - Robert Macfarlane. Peter MacAulay sits down to write his will. The process sets in motion a compulsive series of reflections: a history of his own lifetime and a subjective account of how key events in the post-war world filter through to his home, Stornoway. He reveals his passions for history, engines and fish, and witnesses changing times - and things that don’t change - in the Hebrides. The novel is driven by its idiosyncratic narrator, but with counterpoints from people he engages with - his father, mother, wife, daughter, friends. It’s all about stories, a litany of small histories witnessed during one very individual lifetime.

The Book of Twentieth-century Essays
This collection of the best essays written in the English language during the past one hundred years includes many that have become landmarks defining their time: Norman Mailer's The White Negro, Tom Wolfe's These Radical Chic Evenings, James Baldwin's Notes of a Native Son, and Gore Vidal's The Holy Family. Others are in a lighter vein, like James Thurber's lampoon of Salvador Dali's Secret Life or Max Beerbohm's reflections on Laughter. There are Philip Roth on baseball and A. P. Herbert on bathrooms; Mary McCarthy's My Confession, on her Communist sympathies; and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Crack-up. Each reader will have his or her own favorites: Eudora Welty capturing the precise moment at which she grew up, or Arthur Koestler debunking the effects of magic mushrooms. And each essay has stood the test of time, like Hannah Arendt's The Concentration Camps, Edmund Wilson's now classic The Wound and the Bow, and Paul Fussell on World War II.
