Play has been man’s most useful preoccupation (Frank Capra)
Writing is Easy is about some of Gert Loveday’s main interests: literature and the writerly existence, good food and wine, weird diets, fanatical fitness, egotism and pride that goes before a fall. Crane Mansions – A Novel About the Redeeming Power of Cake picks up on our interest in food, poetry, schemers and pretenders and pompousness cut down to size. In The Art Of The Possible, meek Dr Frank Owlbrother takes on feral Oldies, political skullduggery, a sinister Russian professor and the seductions of reality TV in a quest worthy of his Norse saga hero Hauskuld Priest of Whiteness.
Our books are for people who love to read, love to eat and love to laugh.

Get a move on with the next one.
OK, I’ll have to explore these, both titles and premises are soooo intriguing! Give me a little while though while I cut down on my TBR piles …
No, you must read these immediately. Forget Jane Eyre. She’s so last century.
