The first essay collection from one of the most acclaimed writers of our time.
'This trenchant, unrepentant collection reminds you that she's a brilliant writer... Order a copy in case she's cancelled by Christmas' THE TIMES (Book of the Year)
Starting with the Thames in London, this title is set out in a distinctive magazine-style format with sub-heads, bullets and box-outs. It will explore the tragedies and enforced changes on and along the Thames, including fires, ships sinking, wartime bombs and buildings destroyed.
Angels of Destruction is the mesmerising story of Norah, a nine-year-old girl who seems to materialise out of thin air when she arrives one bitterly cold night on the doorstep of Margaret Quinn.
