Lisa Blower Libri

Lisa Blower celebrates her characters with stories that they wouldn't want told. She makes the bleak funny, in a voice reminiscent of Alan Bennett, and strikes a new chord in regional and working-class fiction.

A love story in the slow lane, a road novel from Stoke-on-Trent to Wales, a stolen caravan and a salesman who kidnaps the love of his life-this is a journey of self-discovery for an odd couple of 60-somethings: childhood sweethearts reunited in later life.
