Fiction

Martin Amis’s Yellow Dog is a biting, high-octane satire that dissects the toxic pulse of 21st-century celebrity culture. When a senseless act of violence transforms a quiet family man into an unpredictable stranger, he becomes caught in a labyrinth of tabloid vultures, criminal underworlds, and royal scandal. A provocative, stylistically brilliant, and darkly hilarious examination of masculinity, morality, and the media’s obsession with the obscene.

Anna Blair, author of best-selling Tea at Miss Cranston's, has written 22 short stories, with very different settings: some in her native Scotland, some in Malaysia where she lived for a few years and others from North America where she has grandchildren. Some of her Scottish stories have a historical context, but most of the stories were prompted by some incident or encounter which left her wondering what might have led up to it, or what might follow. The stories are often deeply touching, but her gentle sense of humour prevents them becoming sentimental. The varied geographical and cultural settings add a richness to the collection.
