Bøker av Charles Boyle

The stories in The Manet Girl explore situations in which desire, cutting through the demands of daily life, blurs all rational distinctions between what is important and what is distraction.

A memoir about books, mostly - and bonfires, cliches, dystopias, failure, happiness, jokes, justice, privilege, publishing, rejection, self-loathing, shoplifting and umbrellas - by an author who has published poetry, fiction and non-fiction under his own name and pen names.

The Disguise distils the writing from four of Charles Boyle's collections published by Carcanet and Faber.
