About O Brother
From the author of Kill Your Friends and Straight White Male comes a tender and affecting memoir laced with Niven's trademark jet-black humour, as he chronicles both his own turbulent upbringing and that of his tragic, troubled little brother Gary who took his own life at the age of just 42.
About Ootlin
The supremely gifted author of Hex and Luckenbooth tells her own remarkable story in unflinching yet lyrical prose as she chronicles a childhood being constantly passed around the UK care system.
