    After an incident of homophobic violence, a painter and his husband move into a house in a quiet residential district. The painter’s loneliness grows to become isolation. Doubts and his efforts to process the act of violence make his creativity run dry. In ‘The End of the Street’ Angelo Tijssens shows two men trying to find their way amid social expectations and heteronormative role models. In an unadorned and subtle style he lays bare the main character’s search, both in his personal life and in his work as a painter.

    The Seers
    This is an exquisitely brilliant novel. Politically exciting and wild and beautiful
    Holly Pester

    Young refugee Hannah arrives in London with only her late mother's diaries. As she navigates the complexities of Britain's immigration system, she reflects on her family's war-torn past and uncovers a different side of her mother. Far away from her native country, Hannah finds solace in British literature and explores her identity and desires with a fellow asylum seeker. ‘The Seers’ is a compelling and experimental novel about love, loss, resilience, colonial traumas, and the true face of Britain’s immigration policy and its impact on young refugees. A confronting and chastening reading experience.
