Story
Liverpool is a unique city within the United Kingdom—in terms of its dialect, hedonism, friendliness, rejection of 'Englishness', and most pertinently, its politics. It is bastion of working-class left-wing politics like no other—as evidenced by the suspension of a Liverpool FC match after the death of the Queen, for fear the Liverpool fans would boo the minute's silence. Yet it was not always so, and Liverpool's transformation from a stronghold of working-class Toryism to its current identity is a remarkable remaking.

Story
In Making an Elephant, Graham Swift brings together a richly varied selection of essays, portraits, poetry and reflections on his life in writing. Full of insights into his passions and motivations, and wise about the friends, family and other writers who have mattered to him over the years, this is a revealing and intimate collection. Kazuo Ishiguro advises on how to choose a guitar, Salman Rushdie arrives for Christmas under guard and Ted Hughes shares the secrets of a Devon river. There are private moments, too, with long-dead writers.
