DESCRIPTION Shuggie Bain is the unforgettable story of young Hugh Shuggie Bain, a sweet and lonely boy who spends his 1980s childhood in run-down public housing in Glasgow, Scotland. Thatcher's policies have put husbands and sons out of work, and the city's notorious drugs epidemic is waiting in the wings. Shuggie's mother Agnes walks a wayward path: she is Shuggie's guiding light but a burden for him and his siblings. She dreams of a house with its own front door while she flicks through the pages of the Freemans catalogue, ordering a little happiness on credit, anything to brighten up her grey life. Married to a philandering taxi-driver husband, Agnes keeps her pride by looking good--her beehive, make-up, and pearly-white false teeth offer a glamourous image of a Glaswegian Elizabeth Taylor. But under the surface, Agnes finds increasing solace in drink, and she drains away the lion's share of each week's benefits--all the family has to live on--on cans of extra-strong lager hidden in handbags and poured into tea mugs. Agnes's older children find their own ways to get a safe distance from their mother, abandoning Shuggie to care for her as she swings between alcoholic binges and sobriety. Shuggie is meanwhile struggling to somehow become the normal boy he desperately longs to be, but everyone has realized that he is no right, a boy with a secret that all but him can see. Agnes is supportive of her son, but her addiction has the power to eclipse everyone close to her--even her beloved Shuggie.A heartbreaking story of addiction, sexuality, and love, Shuggie Bain is an epic portrayal of a working-class family that is rarely seen in fiction. Recalling the work of ?douard Louis, Alan Hollinghurst, Frank McCourt, and Hanya Yanagihara, it is a blistering debut by a brilliant novelist who has a powerful and important story to tell.

    Pan Macmillan September 2021 Highlights They Got You Too Futhi Ntshingila Hans van Rooyen is a former police general raised by two women who survived the 1899 South African War. He finds himself being cared for in an old age home by the daughter of liberation struggle activists. At 80, he carries with him the memories of crimes he committed as an officer under the apartheid government. Having eluded the public confessions at the TRC for his time in the Border Wars, he retained his position in the democratic South Africa, serving as an institutional memory for a new generation of police recruits. Zoe Zondi is tasked to care for the old man. Her gentle and compassionate nature prompts Hans to review his decision to go to the grave with all his secrets. Zoe has her own life story to tell and, as their unlikely bond deepens, strengthened by the isolation that COVID-19 lockdown brings, they provide a safe space for each other to say the things that are often left unsaid. Futhi Ntshingila is a writer from Pietermaritzburg. The author of Shameless and Do Not Go Gentle, her work centres on women and marginalised communities. Futhi holds a Master’s Degree in Conflict Resolution and currently lives and works in Pretoria. • ISBN: 9781770107281 • Format: Trade Paperback • Genre: Fiction • Extent: TBC • Price: R290,00 IMMEDIATE RELEASE Shuggie Bain Winner of the Booker Prize 2020 July release Douglas Stuart It is 1981.

Have you already achieved professional and personal success but secretly fear that you have accomplished everything that you ever will. Translated from the French by Sir Homer Gordon, Bart. Bubbles in the SkyHave fun and learn to read and write English words the fun way. 56 street maps focussed on town centres showing places of interest, car park locations and one-way streets. These approaches only go so far. Hartsock situates narrative literary journalism within the broader histories of the American tradition of "objective" journalism and the standard novel. Margaret Jane Radin examines attempts to justify the use of boilerplate provisions by claiming either that recipients freely consent to them or that economic efficiency demands them, and she finds these justifications wanting.

Second wave of COVID-19 to be fought without vaccines: WHO World Health Organization's emergencies director Michael Ryan has warned that vaccines will not arrive in time to defeat the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. He said, vaccines should not be seen as a unicorn magic solution and countries battling a resurgence of the virus will once again have to climb this mountain without them. The WHO director said, he thinks it's at least four to six months before we have significant levels of vaccination going on anywhere.
