Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Martin Stephen's "Diary Of A Stroke" is one of the first books to give a blow by blow account of what having a stroke means. He describes how he suffered and how he was treated. Like most patients he was put on a general ward rather than on a specialised stroke unit. But specialised units save lives and help people recover more of their old selves. Forget the high skill high tech medicine we love on House and Casualty. Martin Stephen was put on a ward which was dirty, where the nurses were not very motivated and therapy was something you might get next week. Hope was not much in evidence. He describes his physical and emotional battles to survive with insight and feeling.He charts how his personality changed - and he pays tribute to his wife and sons. Without them it would have been bleak, bleak, bleak. This is a moving and important book. Martin Stephen is an accomplished writer - author of some best selling thrillers - but he has never before written such a personal book. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A touching and comic tale of the last week before Stanley Dowd turns thirteen. Stanley wants a window knocked out of the gable-end of his end-of-terrace home on Richmond Street, New Brighton - though he feels it might be semi-detached - to give him a lovely view of sea. He also wants to be told the secret that concerns the father he never knew. Mum won't tell him. Grandad won't. Gran in the Seaview Home can't. Stanley lives with his mum who is very liberal (though not about his dad), and Stanley's best friend and partner-in-arms. Both mum and son coordinate sleepover sessions: mum with a succession of gentlemen callers; Stanley with school-friend Dominic, whose parents are both doctors. He also talks to strangers (though Mum, advises against it). As Stanley tells Mum, `How do you know someone's strange until you've spoken to him?' He is questioned by Jim the sad milkman who is fed up with trying to compete with Asda, while going without payment from some of his customers in Richmond Street, and becomes friends with 'Disgusting Derek' and many another New Brighton character. Derek and Stanley meet near the sea, Stanley's favourite place in the whole world. But the sea turns on them, and turns the last week of his childhood upside down. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A major memoir of the Second World War reissued for the centenary of Vernon Scannells birth. Scannell is considered one of the finest poets of the 1945 war. This book is based on his experiences. John Bain (Scannells real name) is a good soldier who becomes a deserter in 1942. He walks away from the battle at Wadi Akarit where he saw fellow soldiers casually stealing from the bodies of their dead comrades. He is disgusted and starts walking back to Tripoli where hes picked up by the military police. The book describes the harsh interrogations he was subjected to. He is sentenced to serve in the military detention barracks at Alexandria. Lawrence Durrell made the city famous with his Four Xx but Bain describes experiences that are anything but romantic. The endless brutal routine wears all the prisoners down. The book gives bleak detail after bleak detail after bleak detail. Bain returned to serve in Normandy and celebrated the end of the war by leaving the army. In an introduction, Scannell hoped the book will tell readers something about the Second World War and perhaps all wars that is not found in other accounts of military life. I hope too that it might throw a little light on the nature of human courage. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The law deals with extremes of human behaviour. So it is not surprising authors have written about lawyers since Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales. His Sergeant at Law is a highly respected if pompous lawyer who is considered very wise. Shakespeare's Justice Shallow, as the name suggests, is not a paragon of wisdom. Rather more recently John Mortimer's Rumpole was a wonderful character who defended the presumption of innocence and did not fear pompous judges. And while the cases reported here are merely products of the author's wide imagination, they nevertheless vividly and realistically illustrate the virtues of irreverence, fearlessness, integrity and generosity. Anthony Harkavy, the author, is possibly one of the oldest debutantes as a fiction writer. He qualified as a lawyer in 1963. Harkavy said: 'Most of us like a challenge. During 35 years in legal practice I was fortunate enough to be able to hone my writing skills, albeit confined to the dry and uninspiring. An event in which I was involved in 2013 with my good friend and outstanding poet, Jeremy Robson, prompted me to write a story about it. What better than to utilise my legal and prison experiences as a fertile source of material. Thus emerged Anthony Harrison. My fantasy David lawyer up against the Goliaths of the often pompous, bloated legal profession. And the torch shining its light on the humanity as well as the brutality, existing behind prison gates. A challenge which I have relished.' Harkavy has written stories which show how legal life works. There is the case of Gradsky v Gradsky. In their pre-nup agreement Gradsky had to meet his rich wife's demands for sex and more sex. But was he really just after her money? One story covers probably the only dog to give evidence in court. The tales also deal with financial crimes. Harkavy spent 13 years after he retired volunteering as an independent prison monitor. Some of these tales reveal the brutality and tragedy of prison but one is utterly different. Many inmates can't read until. 'They are human and gripping, with unexpected twists. That he should have turned to writing so late in life and produced compelling stories is remarkable,' says Jeremy Robson. The stories are entertaining, poignant and offer an insider's view of the courts and jails. They will make readers think, sometimes laugh, and always want to carry on reading. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
