Our recommendation for this weeks comes in the form of model turned writer, Lad from Lancashire turned Londoner by the name of Gavin James Bower.
His first novel Dazed and Aroused was published in 2009 and depicts the bleak and vacuous side of the modelling industry. His new work, Made In Britain, was published this month by Quartet Books and is a little gem. He is already being hailed as “An author to watch” and has received promising reviews in The Observer. Not only that but Made In Britain was also nominated for Not The Booker Prize.
His writing is razor sharp and completely intriguing. He is definitely not one to miss.
