In Brixton, Nora and Dora Chance – twin chorus girls born and bred south of the river – are celebrating their 75th birthday. Over the river in Chelsea, their father and greatest actor of his generation Melchior Hazard turns 100 on the same day. As does his twin brother Peregrine. If, in fact, he's still alive. And if, in truth, Melchior is their real father after all... Wise Children is adapted for the stage from Angela Carter's last novel about a theatrical family living in South London. It centres around twin chorus girls, Nora and Dora Chance, whose lives are brimming with mystery, illegitimacy and scandal. Dora narrates the story as her older self, looking back on a tumultuous life, throughout which she and her sister have loved to sing and dance. A big, bawdy tangle of theatrical joy and heartbreak, Wise Children is a celebration of show business, family, forgiveness and hope. Expect show girls and Shakespeare, sex and scandal, music, mischief and mistaken identity – and butterflies by the thousand.

All of us have probably encountered that little voice at some point in time that talks inside our head-you know the voice. The one that says yea and the other that says nay. The one that tells you to stay when you know you should go, or the one that tries to disrupt your daily activities by interfering with your knack for life. Well, that is the voice that the author so candidly talks about in her book. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the voice never stopped talking? In this book the author describes what it was like living with that voice. She describes it like listening to your favorite talk show host who never shuts up, sort of like the ladies on The View and Kathie Lee and Hoda. The only difference is she could not turn the channel or turn off the tube to silence the voice. The voice was cruel, merciless, and told her ghastly things, similar to a journalist reporting alarming news. Only it was destined to destroy her, affecting every aspect of her life, including her ability to work, focus, and concentrate. However, before allowing the voice to completely destroy her, a family member's expertise and understanding directed her in the preeminent pathway to revitalization. This book is based on true events as the author remembers. Most of the events are written sequentially. Others she skipped around in hope to make the events a little more interesting. The author believes everyone has a story, and if sharing your story will help you or others feel encouraged, she encourages you to share your story.

'A delightful historical saga which is so beautifully woven together that from the very start I was enchanted' Jaffa Reads Too From the award-winning author of The Apothecary's Daughter comes a beautifully evocative, family drama, perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore, Lucinda Riley and Elizabeth Jane Howard's Cazalet Chronicles. 1891. Spindrift House, Cornwall. Talented painter Edith Fairchild is poised to begin a life of newlywed bliss and artistic creation in the inspiring setting of Spindrift House, freshly inherited by her charming husband, Benedict, and overlooking the stunning harbour of Port Isaac. But when her honeymoon turns sour, her dreams are all but dashed and after a moment of madness and desire she finds herself pregnant with another man's child. Edith swears never to tell her secret and devotes herself to her art. Joined at Spindrift House by her friends - Clarissa, Dora and the secret father of her child, Pascal - together they turn the house into a budding artists' community. But despite their dreams of an idyllic way of life creating beauty by the sea, it becomes clear that all is not perfect within their tight-knit community, and that the weight of their secrets could threaten to tear apart their paradise forever... Why do readers love Charlotte Betts? 'This book was a pleasure to read, from beginning to end. A story in which to lose yourself, and become part of the community...
