My delightful friend Ben’s newest novel, Seascraper, is out now. I’m really excited about this one because it apparently takes place over a day and a bit, and that’s all my little raisin brain can handle these days! Congrats, buddy! She’s a beaut! #benjaminwood

I was debating if I should pick up The Paris Express and finish reading all the Giller prize shortlist books. But Seascraper kept calling me. I couldn’t ignore the book any longer.

'Yeah,but if it thickens up too much, the horse is going to fret.'
'Then how about we find the sea so I can get a proper look at it…needn't hang around too long…head up to the edge and back.'

Shrimps and Sink Pits.
Book Review for “Seascraper” by Benjamin Wood. Summary: "Thomas lives a slow, deliberate life with his mother in Longferry, working his grandpa’s trade as a shanker. He rises early to take his horse and cart to the grey, gloomy beach and scrape for shrimp, spending the afternoon selling his wares, trying to wash away the salt and scum, pining for Joan Wyeth down the street, and rehearsing songs on his guitar.
