Summary
Lola and Pijin make up stories to test each other, stories of daring and adventure, of bad people and of Gwyn, who drives his ice cream up the hill to their town every week. Gwyn is a dangerous man, and Pijin knows it. Lola is not so sure. As they grow up and their friendship grows more complicated, some of their stories fall silent, but some will come true.
Pigeon is an audio journey through the uneasy half-forgotten memories of childhood, a story about wishful thinking and the power of language.

Beautifully written story that uses and describes the power of language
There are sentences throughout this book that so beautifully weave words and imagery, it is a spellbinding novel.
The power of language is expressed powerfully and whilst there are sentences spoken in Welsh it is not necessary to be a Welsh speaker to be drawn along - the context always allows a translation to be understood.
The raw, uncompromisingly nastiness of the circumstances that Pigeon, Iola and Cher encounter is so brilliantly told, and every character you meet - from “odd” Gwyn to the “aunties” in the chapel - are completely compelling (I think I knew them all!)
The only thing I didn’t like about this book was that it had to end.
I would love to know the next chapter…

Stori uffernol o da! This story feels like a bath for the soul! The landscape portrayed is rough and rugged and the words weave a tapestry of something precious! I’m not sure I will ever be able to get this story out of my heart, it’s where my home is!
