I have just read Telephone by Pericval Everett in one go. Compulsive, compelling, fiercely intelligent, sharp, and utterly heartbreaking. It is a book about love, loss, and grief. Essential reading. One of the greatest authors of our time.

When you're feeling lost at sea, what will it take to guide you home?
Tender and hopeful, Attention All Shipping is a beautiful novel about losing and finding family.
This is perfect for fans of Rachel Joyce, Sarah Winman and Donal Ryan. Get in touch if you'd like a proof!
