I'm giving away this signed 1st edition h/b of my new novel (it has a tiny jacket rip which means I wouldn't sell it) to one person who reposts this.

You might like it if you like:
Folkloric creatures
Old records
Intricate psychedelic stories
The idea of circular time

All shares much-appreciated.

I’m deeply concerned about recent racist attacks in our capital city.
From the TfL workers being punched and racially abused to women who were chased down the street - I’m deeply concerned about the alarming rise of racist attacks in our capital city. We are also seeing appalling incidents elsewhere in the country - some of which have included abhorrent violence towards children. These incidents illustrate the dangers of allowing racism to be normalised and mainstreamed. Real lives and personal safety are under threat. I will continue to speak out against racial inequalities and injustices, as well as providing support to organisations working to support our communities and bring people together. London is a successful, liberal and multicultural city. The greatest in the world. It will always be for everyone and I promise you: that will never change. MAYOR OF LONDON, SADIQ KHAN
