Falling Through
Graham Bartlett is an English tutor who lives in North London and travels to meet his teenage clients. He is lonely, unable to find steady work, but does his best to survive and deliver sound lessons to a number of youngsters. This novel is a haunted, darkly funny portrayal of a side of London that hasn't often found its way into fiction.
Late Driver
Pauline is at the end of her life, wool-gathering in a chair, but simultaneously in her prime, driving between dress shops in her blue Opel Kadett; Eileen Platt, an American nurse, is stationed on a remote airfield - known as Mudville - in the Blackdown Hills, Devon, her duties to patch up returning aircrew of Liberator bombers. She doesn't want to go home to Des Moines after the war. She wants to stay in England. Near the old airfield a family play out their last moves in a place superficially unchanged, in a country whose old order is breaking up, slipping past proper recall. Richie's rotting Jags and Daimlers no longer run; women still care for men, sometimes may be cared for in turn - but sometimes the cars may change without warning, and wasps swarm madly out of the jar. In stories varying in size and manner from a funeral eulogy to a compelling wartime romance, Late Driver tells of a number of surprising lives imagined in out of the way places; the mood is restless, probing, suffused with memories and loss - although some rivet-hole stars still let in the light of the young women who first punched them into an empty sky.
Mirrorball
What are those distorted smears of colour in the mirror ball? Are they people? Yes. They are people. They are us. And there am I ... or perhaps not: retinal overload, a trick of the light. The speaker of these lines is himself caught up in the glare, garrulous in spite of the din. Mirrorball collects poems from 2004 to 2018.
Snow Bees
Snow Bees is an apocalyptic novel with a difference, a roller coaster story in which hilarity rubs shoulders with death and a world apparently charges headlong towards oblivion.
Firewriting and Other Poems
'Firewriting' is John Muckle's first collection of poems, following two collections of short fiction. The book revolves around the long title poem, an extraordinary conceit which imagines that Walter Benjamin survived and lived to an advanced age. This and the supporting poems demonstrate the author's narrative skills.
