Like pissing in the wind, it might not be advisable, but sometimes you've just got to give it a try. TWAT! It's a pregnant fish is an adventure comedy where three guys experience trauma in their lives, coming together to face their fears under the supervision and guidance of the eccentric and outrageous Professor Jebsworth. As an alternative approach to counselling, the group travel the world: building bonds, breaking hearts and learning about their inner selves in the process. Best not to mention the sexual deviancies here... Follow the journey of a sex obsessed idiot, a drug addicted genius, a gentleman blinded from love by his innocence and an outrageously pompous Cambridge Don across Europe, Asia and North America. Not for the faint hearted, this novel combines twisted-romance, personal-adventure, self-exploration and cultural-appreciation filled with laughs along the way. Expect to be entertained, astounded and in places, highly offended as you join this unlikely bunch on their personal mission to self-actualise.

Alan is trying hard to make sense of his world since his wife left him for Chuck in Morewilling and the local Co-op closed down. 21st century technology is eating into his wallet and his soul, and the price of a night out doesn’t leave change from a tenner anymore. But he is sure about three things: No one in Lesswilling needs a bidet or a hot tub. There’s no place for preserved lemons on British supermarket shelves. His mother was right about hindsight – it is a “wonderful thing to meet your own arse coming back.”

National Book Award Finalist • Here is the unforgettable story of the Binewskis, a circus-geek family whose matriarch and patriarch have bred their own exhibit of human oddities—with the help of amphetamines, arsenic, and radioisotopes. One of The Atlantic’s Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years Their offspring include Arturo the Aquaboy, who has flippers for limbs and a megalomaniac ambition worthy of Genghis Khan . . . Iphy and Elly, the lissome Siamese twins . . . albino hunchback Oly, and the outwardly normal Chick, whose mysterious gifts make him the family’s most precious—and dangerous—asset. As the Binewskis take their act across the backwaters of the U.S., inspiring fanatical devotion and murderous revulsion; as its members conduct their own Machiavellian version of sibling rivalry, Geek Love throws its sulfurous light on our notions of the freakish and the normal, the beautiful and the ugly, the holy and the obscene. Family values will never be the same.

One is found facedown in a lemon drizzle cake, stabbed with a crochet needle. Another nearly dies spectacularly in the revolving doors of a Harrogate hotel.

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
