Eimear McBride, who won the Baileys prize in 2014 for a first novel which had struggled to find a publisher, won Britain’s oldest literary award, the James Tait Black prize, for her second, The Lesser Bohemians.

McBride’s The Lesser Bohemians, in which an 18-year-old Irish girl comes to London and falls for an older actor, was described by judges as “an extraordinary rendering of a young woman’s consciousness as she eagerly embarks on a new life in London”.

Book Rating
I love Haunted London Underground just likes its fellow book Haunted London because it covers a good branch of history and paranormal events over the underground. I recommend this book to everyone who loves history and paranormal and I give this book a rating of 8/10.

I respect the Authors David Brandon and Alan Brooke for their dedication to the research of each underground station and ghost stories tied to them and putting the information in a coherent way of reading it.

Jean Rhys | 2021

Book Favorite

"I discovered Jean Rhys thru Jon an anarchist bookseller in London in 2012 who runs a book barge Word On The Water. He approached me with this book of short stories. Written mainly in the late 20's and 30's. Rhys's voice is utterly contemporary. She writes from her own life with an unsparing eye capturing the essence of outsider women left to their own devices, caught up in bad relationships, and loneliness in rented rooms and café's in London and Paris."
