Bookshop

A limited and highly subjective collection of some of the books out there. Some are from Nottingham writers and some are not. There is no real logic to the selection other than we think you might find them interesting.

Every so often, we will add books to the list by posting them in the recommended section.

For a wider choice of books, follow the bookshop links on this page.

Nude Against A Rock
by Robert Hamberger

cover Nude Against A Rock, Robert Hamberger’s exciting fifth collection, is a love song for the threatened world. There is a thematic widening of the lens that connects intimacy, home and family to other countries, porous borders. The collection culminates in a passionate sequence after the gay British painter Keith Vaughan, where the male ‘body of contradictions’ is a site of desire and tenderness, landscape becomes a haven, and the artist is compelled to observe, create and bear witness.

Survivors
The Lost Stories of the Last Captives of the Atlantic Slave Trade
by Hannah Durkin

cover This is an immersive and revelatory history of the survivors of the Clotilda, the last ship of the Atlantic slave trade, whose lives diverged and intersected in profound ways.

The Clotilda docked in Mobile Bay, Alabama, in July 1860 – more than half a century after the passage of a federal law banning the importation of captive Africans, and nine months before the beginning of the Civil War. The last of its survivors lived well into the twentieth century. They were the last witnesses to the final act of a terrible and significant period in world history.
