Johnners also had an enviable talent like few other broadcasters of making his listeners feel like close, personal friends.Drawing on Brian Johnston's own papers and other previously unpublished sources as well as conversations with an enormous selection of his friends and colleagues, Tim Heald's fully authorised biography brings to us the many different sides of Johnners and encapsulates brilliantly his truly remarkable life.Praise for Brian Johnston'Tim Heald is a good writer, an assiduous researcher and an experienced biographer... The result is outstanding, so revealing that you have to refer to the dust jacket to reassure yourself this is authorised... There has never been an Englishman quite like Brian Johnston. Tim Heald, without rocking boats or destroying legends, has written a masterpiece which will humanise the legend' Daily Mail'Heald's light touch and anecdotal approach are entirely in keeping with the man -Johnners would have approved' Time Out'Packed as sweetly as some rich cake with... fun and humour...

A story to be felt and not forgotten, from the acclaimed author of Dandelion Clocks and Violet Ink . . . It's a glorious summer and Erin and Martha are both stuck at Oak Hill Home for the Elderly. Erin is fed up: no one is listening to her, not her mum, nor her dad, nor her friends. She does not want to spend the summer helping out in an old people's home. Martha is even more angry: she doesn't want to be living in the home and she can't make herself understood at all. Misunderstood and feeling ignored by everyone, they are equally frustrated by the situation. But as Erin learns to listen to Martha, she discovers some very important lessons about making her own voice heard.

A "captivating and bittersweet" novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Summer of '69: Their secret love affair has lasted for decades—but this could be the summer that changes everything (People). When Mallory Blessing's son, Link, receives deathbed instructions from his mother to call a number on a slip of paper in her desk drawer, he's not sure what to expect. But he certainly does not expect Jake McCloud to answer. It's the late spring of 2020 and Jake's wife, Ursula DeGournsey, is the frontrunner in the upcoming Presidential election. There must be a mistake, Link thinks. How do Mallory and Jake know each other? Flash back to the sweet summer of 1993: Mallory has just inherited a beachfront cottage on Nantucket from her aunt, and she agrees to host her brother's bachelor party. Cooper's friend from college, Jake McCloud, attends, and Jake and Mallory form a bond that will persevere—through marriage, children, and Ursula's stratospheric political rise—until Mallory learns she's dying. Based on the classic film Same Time Next Year (which Mallory and Jake watch every summer), 28 Summers explores the agony and romance of a one-weekend-per-year affair and the dramatic ways this relationship complicates and enriches their lives, and the lives of the people they love.
