Remember this book (and BBC series)? A new edition of Break in the Sun is coming soon! “Bernard Ashley's great gift is to turn what seems to be low-key realism into something much stronger and more resonant … empathy, compassion, an undimmed thirst for decency and justice.” -Philip Pullman #booksky

Happy 135th birthday to #StormJameson - the brilliant Northern writer whose classic work ‘The Moon is Making’ we will republish this summer. Storm was born and brought up in the Yorkshire fishing haven of #Whitby, where this novel is also set… move over Dracula, there’s a new book in town!
