Christopher Hope recommends
 Oranges from Spain (1999) David Park "David Park writes beautifully about growing up in Belfast-of childhoods under God and the gun.Somehow,against all the odds,his stories are gentle,vivid,life affirming." |  The Cellist of Sarajevo (2008) Steven Galloway "For anyone who saw the Balkan wars close up, The Cellist of Sarajevo rings absolutely true. For anyone who didn't, it will be a revelation." |
