Walking with Angels - Claire Louise Price - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Walking with Angels - Claire Louise Price - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Walking With Angels is a collection of poems written during a unique four-year journey taken by the author, in which she explores the concepts of love, loss, hope, gratitude, spirituality and courage, all featured in sharp relief. These emotions can be dulled by the routine of our everyday lives. Through her poems, Claire-Louise Price captures and celebrates the elusive, and often overlooked, qualities of human existence. A collection that seeks to uplift the reader, bringing inspiration and hope. Walking with Angels resonates not only with poetry lovers but with anyone who has experienced the joys and sorrows of life, love and loss, which is just about all of us. The poems appeal lies in their wit, their masterful use of understatement, and above all, the poignant contrast of the light hearted with the profound. A powerful combination of simplicity and depth engages us to think about living life to the full while we can. Full colour images of four beautiful works by artist Paola Minekov illustrate Walking with Angels, adding to the gem-like quality of the collection a book to hold in your hands, close to your heart.

The Reality of LXVE with Venice - Venice - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Reality of LXVE with Venice - Venice - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Reality of LXVE with Venice is an unflinchingly raw and deeply personal debut memoir by 23-year-old Venice, a Gen Z navigating the aftermath of heartbreak. With her world turned upside down, Venice invites readers of all generations on an intimate journey of rediscovery, peeling back the layers of love, loss, and self-identity. Through heartbreak’s haze, Venice reflects on what it means to truly love and be loved — beyond romantic ideals and filtered social media highlights. With moments that are equal parts vulnerable and empowering, she sifts through emotional wreckage and reclaims her voice. Her introspective narration is refreshingly honest, capturing the turbulent highs and lows of a young woman figuring out life and love in real time. Woven with humor, tenderness, and hard-earned understanding, The Reality of LXVE with Venice is more than a breakup story. It’s a testament to resilience, self-love, and redefining intimacy on your own terms. In a world where love is often presented as picture-perfect, Venice’s story will resonate deeply with those of all ages who have loved and lost — and may even dare to love again.

Coat with Long Sleeves - Geoff Duck - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

What would you do if you lost your wife and kids and somebody took away your job in the company you’d started? If there was nothing left of your old life and your new one held only solitude and isolation? And you shut yourself away. You became a pariah. People hated and despised you, and they feared you with good reason. And then you found something that shouldn’t have been there, that you couldn’t explain. An ancient relic from a forgotten age of witchcraft and superstition, but ultimately from a time when the natural world was a part of the way we lived. And you thought that someone should know about it because it just might change everything. For ever. What would you do?Geoff Duck’s protagonist is that failed Tech entrepreneur who retreats to the family’s holiday home in rural North Devon when things go pear-shaped; who endures breakdown and seclusion for twenty years until he chances upon the mysterious artefact that he realises has lain untouched for half a millennium.This novel explores what happens when you have too much time on your hands for your own good. It looks at disconnects with society, with nature, with traditional ways and perhaps with sanity as the protagonist attempts to unravel the true meaning of what he has found and reconcile it with the modern world.

The Nomad Letters - Martin Thiebaut - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Nomad Letters - Martin Thiebaut - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The remarkable story of a friendship spanning six decades between two individuals whose careers could hardly have followed more contrasting courses beyond the Land of Hope and Glory: that of Graham Haigh, the expedition-mounting adventurer, who went on to make the Middle East and South-East Asia his professional stamping grounds, and that of Martin Thiebaut whose francophone roots led him to Belgium then Luxembourg and to rub shoulders with a stimulating mix of nationalities. But given that this dual epistolary autobiography was conceived as a tribute to the author’s lifelong friend, the focus is on Graham and his richly varied experiences. Not least among these, in view of a more than passing interest in pop music and the lure of the open road, was Graham’s encounter back in the 1960s with Roy Orbison on the Sussex coast, where the singer had come to collect a bespoke Harley-Davidson. When, many years later, Graham exchanged handshakes with a Kuwaiti billionaire, the memory of that warm greeting with the man who sang ‘You Got It’ trumped pressing the flesh with a Forbes list magnate.

Encounters with Michael Arlen - Philip Ward - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Encounters with Michael Arlen - Philip Ward - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Michael Arlen (1895-1956) was a literary shooting star among the smart set of the 1920s. The self-styled chronicler of Mayfair society, he became an international celebrity after the publication of his scandalous novel The Green Hat in 1924. Born into an immigrant Armenian community in Lancashire, following early breakthrough in London he led a millionaire’s life on the Riviera and dabbled in the Hollywood film industry before living out his final years, all but forgotten, in retirement in New York. For all his success as a purveyor of popular fiction, he remained forever an ‘outsider’, arousing both fascination and suspicion in the English-speaking world. Encounters with Michael Arlen is a set of overlapping essays that reflect how the novelist was seen by himself and by his contemporaries. Unlike a conventional biography, the emphasis is on his connections with other leading figures of the day, especially fellow writers such as D.H. Lawrence, Ernest Hemingway and Rebecca West. The book is also a rumination by the author on the sheer difficulty of writing literary biography. With its comprehensive timeline and listing of archive materials relating to Arlen, it should serve as a stimulus to future research on this neglected and enigmatic personality.

The Man with the Ivory Ear - D. S. Mcdonough - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Man with the Ivory Ear - D. S. Mcdonough - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Man with the Ivory Ear is a fast-paced and earthy thriller in which several plots intertwine to form an original story. Woodhouse, a battle scarred SIS operative, is tasked to find a stealth helicopter which has been stolen from an American airbase by the psychic eponymous villain. Woodhouse is hampered, however, by recurring headaches, attempts on his life and bewildering flashbacks to traumatic childhood occurrences like ‘Badger-gate’ and ‘The Birds and the Bees’. In a cat pottery in rural Norfolk, meanwhile, Cubby, an overweight youth in unrequited love with a girl from a nearby bakery, has accidentally created a ceramic feline with an unmistakable resemblance to Adolf Hitler. This cat (the Cat-Führer), which may or may not be a reincarnation of the Nazi despot, possesses the mind of Gruber, a timid legal assistant, and begins to direct his actions to increasingly disturbing ends. And after the young Woodhouse’s mother suffers a nervous breakdown post ‘Badger-gate’, and his father retreats into an invented ‘Northern’ persona, the boy is sent to a strict boarding school, setting in motion a chain of events that will ultimately lead to tragedy. The world in which The Man with the Ivory Ear takes place is as our own but the supernatural is more commonplace and the characters more used to dealing with unusual goings on. Themes of love, loss, guilt and obsession are obliquely examined by a narrator as pleasingly fluctuant as his characters. The book will be enjoyed by readers who like the unexpected and for characters to act out of turn.

Boating with Buster - Alison Alderton - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Amidst a crisis, Alison feels life’s not worth living, but Buster, a Beagle puppy, will change everything... Acquiring Lily , a Dutch barge, Alison and her husband, Roger, head for the calmness of the inland waterways. Boating with Buster, they learn plenty about boisterous Beagles and bothersome boats! Redundancy triggers a move to Ireland where the characters are larger-than-life, and the lakes so huge they are known as inland seas. They become custodians of a historical property, partake in milestone boating events, and go ice-breaking in the coldest winter for fifty years. A move to Europe seems to be the chance of a lifetime, but tragedy strikes when Buster develops a debilitating illness. Watching the world go by aboard Lily aids Buster’s recuperation, as they travel through the Netherlands and Germany: spending long summer days on the Mecklenburg Lakes and winter in the former Eastern bloc. Finally, they cross the Baltic Sea to enter Danish waters. Buster’s story flows through the waterways of Europe in this colourfully portrayed, moving book of canine companionship. A memoir written in first person, Boating with Buster is a charming ‘tail’ that readers who enjoy animal stories, travel and boating will delight in.

Rex, a husband and father, makes an unintentional error. Will Rex get away with his terrible, taboo-bustingmistake?

Although aspects of the novel are richly ironic and even comedic, it alsodeals with challenging themes, not least HIV/AIDS. Matt Bishop wrote The Boy Made the Difference because very few (if any) literary novels are set againstthe narrative backdrop of the HIV/AIDS crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s, which had a profoundand lasting impact on the gay community. All of the proceeds from the book sales will be donated tohis late mother’s charity – the Bernardine Bishop Appeal (part of CLIC Sargent – a charity that helpschildren, young people and their families who are suffering the effects of cancer).

Raymond is plucky, brave and (surprisingly for a robin), well-read. What Bonnie lacks in knowledge she makes up for with common sense.

It’s mid-winter and they often visit nearby Fir Cottage where they can expect food and fresh water provided by nice old Mr Digweed. One snowy December day, Raymond and Bonnie meet up early and fly the short distance over to the cottage only to find it deserted and with no sign of food or water. Initially, they are just concerned about Mr Digweed’s health but, later that day, they discover that the forlorn-looking cottage has attracted the interest of two suspicious-looking strangers. Who are these intruders and what, exactly, do they want? How can two little birds help Mr Digweed and protect Fir Cottage? Where will they find help? Unfortunately, there is also a threat to the birds'' habitat! It looks as though they might have to move away from the countryside that they love so much.
