Sketches From Memory
Stuart Barnes has spent over forty years of his life immersed in rugby union, remembered as one of the most controversial playing names during the dying days of the English amateur era and now regarded as a controversial observers in the media – on both television and in print – with over two decades of broadcasting and journalistic experience to draw upon. Sketches from Memory combines autobiography with an objective and off-beat study of the sport from the author's childhood in the 1970s, through the revolution of the transition to professionalism in the 1980s and 1990s, right up until the present day. Eschewing the more traditional form of the sports book, Barnes abandons chronology t...
Smelling of Roses
Thwarted in his ambitions to play football for Arsenal, or become the new Bob Dylan, Stuart Barnes took up rugby. His path led him to desert first Wales, then Bristol and eventually England, whilst he found solace in Bath. He maintained a high profile as one of rugby's few anti-establishment characters. He was critical of the Conservative Party, Twickenham's amateur ethos and Swing Low Sweet Chariot, and retained a loyal following of rugby supporters. This autobiography chronicles his behind the scenes in the England camp and his frequent hangovers and depressions induced by too much Joseph Conrad and Thomas Hardy.

Talking It Over
Shy, sensible banker Stuart has trouble with women; that is, until a fortuitous singles night, where he meets Gillian, a picture restorer recovering from a destructive affair. Stuart's best friend Oliver is his complete opposite - a language teacher who 'talks like a dictionary', brash and feckless. Soon Stuart and Gillian are married, but it is not long before a tentative friendship between the three evolves into something far different. Talking it Over is a brilliant and intimate account of love's vicissitudes. It begins as a comedy of errors, then slowly darkens and deepens, drawing us compellingly into the quagmires of the heart. “An interplay of serious thought and dazzling wit. . . . It's moving, it's funny, it's frightening . . . fiction at its best.” —New York Times Book Review
