After being independently published, Birmingham writer Charlie Hill’s first novel ‘The Space Between Things’ is set in Moseley and looks at the free party people and road protesters of the early 1990’s.
Fellow Birmingham author, Jim Crace, described his writing as ‘intelligent and witty’. Jonathan Coe also gave praise for the book;
What I liked very much about the novel was that it vividly captures a moment in Britain’s recent past, and takes us inside a world and a milieu which most readers won’t have known before. And of course, as a tragic love story, it packs a considerable punch.
The book will be out 1 October, along with a launch event on 14 October at Waterstones’ Birmingham High Street branch.
‘The Space Between Things’ can be pre-ordered from Amazon, Waterstones and London Review Bookshop, but you’d like a head start, Charlie has posted the first chapter online.
