Eating With The Angels
A mouth-watering novel about love, food, heartbreak . . . and Venice. Eating means everything to Connie Farrell, she's a restaurant critic after all, so when her husband Tom fails to turn up on their second honeymoon in fairytale Venice she's rattled but she doesn't exactly lose her appetite. Quite the opposite, you could say. Handsome gondolier Marco awakes a hunger in her and sates it with all manner of mouth-watering delicacies, including himself. But Connie also has a hankering for something with a bit more zest, something muscled and tanned with silver hair and an honest heart going by the name of Luca. All second honeymoons should be so sweet! Back home in New York, however, there's more than amore on Connie's plate and none of it to her taste. Her husband is gone, her lover is a stranger, her mother is disappointed. Connie has lost sight of the simple things in life but can the cruellest of blows bring them back? Or is it too late?

And when her son Monty returns from his gap year Down Under it’s only too clear what, or who, that trouble is. Then the plan to turn her crumbling home into a tea room hits a snag, the macramé at her sister’s house starts to seriously unravel, and why is her doctor leaving so many messages? Enter Will, a mysterious handyman with a secret stash of chocolate truffles, and soon life – with all its hiccups – is just her cup of tea.
Poems To My Younger Self
Poems To My Younger Self is exactly that. I have transformed and lived through so many things that my younger self wouldn't have been able to fathom. I am proud, I am here, and I am ready to speak my truth. There are so many things I wish I could let little Shanika know about adulting. Like how we can feel guilty for having emotions. How we are made to feel like we shouldn't cry much like when we are children, so in that regard nothing has really changed. How your superheroes become your stories antagonists. How you think you have found the love of your life and then you find 3 more. How the dreams of being a wife at 26 is looking more like 30-ish. How you get bored easily and change your hair all the time to feel refreshed but not everyone gets it. How you have learned about the law of attraction and you've been on its good and bad side. How you are creative but cannot create due to responsibilities. And how an instagram post turned into you writing your first poetry book. I can't sum all of this up into this book yet, but what I can do is use this book as a way to heal my inner child. I can address my younger self and give her a heads up on what's to come.
The Visiting Hour
You used to swing me on our garden gate. In and out, in and out - out and in, me, on top of the gate, safe because I was in your arms, my father's big strong arms. Recalling events that may or may not have happened, people he may or may not have known, an elderly father weaves his life, funny, angry, poignant, as if in a dream.His daughter, perched outside his window, as close as the pandemic allows, responds with conflicting memories. They sing and argue, they broach dangerous ground, their profound love apparent despite themselves, until the visiting hour is up. Written during the Covid-19 lockdown of 2020, Frank McGuinness's The Visiting Hour premiered in April 2021 at the Gate Theatre, Dublin, in the first online Gate At Home production.
Heavenly Hirani's School of Laughing Yoga
A sparkling, moving, utterly charming new novel from the incomparable Sarah-Kate Lynch Annie Jordan never wanted to go to India: there were too many poor people and the wrong sorts of smells. But when she ends up there anyway, to her great surprise it’s not the beggars that cling to her, it’s the lessons in life — courtesy of Heavenly Hirani and her beachside laughing yoga. This endearing new novel by Sarah-Kate Lynch will reconfirm for her fans what a master she is of humour, exploring and understanding human experience and creating a vivid world around her utterly believable characters.
