The Bibliography of Regional Fiction in Britain and Ireland, 1800–2000


Book Description

Pioneering and interdisciplinary in nature, this bibliography constitutes a comprehensive list of regional fiction for every county of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England over the past two centuries. In addition, other regions of a usually topographical or urban nature have been used, such as Birmingham and the Black Country; London; The Fens; the Brecklands; the Highlands; the Hebrides; or the Welsh border. Each entry lists the author, title, and date of first publication. The geographical coverage is encompassing and complete, from the Channel Islands to the Shetlands. An original introduction discusses such matters as definition, bibliographical method, popular readerships, trends in output, and the scholarly literature on regional fiction.




Laurie and Claire


Book Description

When they were children at Foscote an enduring, unbreakable bond was forged between Laurie Stone and Claire Haddingham. Tested by dawning adulthood, their bond - mutually supportive and emotionally intense - showed every sign of prevailing, given a compromise or two. For neither Claire not Laurie - a talented TV performer and everyone's favourite party guest despite his hidden conflicts - could contemplate life without the other. But then Lydia arrived on the scene. Strong and bold was Lydia's style of beauty - hers was not the soft and gentle kind. Danger filled the house. Claire felt this most surely. It emanated, she considered, from Lydia's air of malign purpose. Claire had long observed in herself a capacity for ruthlessness where her love for Laurie was concerned. The question became, how far would she go? Laurie and Claire is a passionate story of obsessional love in which the conflicting drives of sexuality and loyalty are played out against a background of growing menace. Potent as a dream, it delights and shocks as it conveys the reader into the minds and desires of Laurie and Claire - and Lydia.
