Set in the UK, Love's Register tells the story of romantic love and climate change over four generations. Told by five members of the Lavender family, it begins in York, UK, in the middle of the free-love 60s, and ends with the night sea journey across the vastness of Oceania. The family voices, plus others, take us through generational conflicts in the 1920s, open relationships in the feminist 80s/90s and a contemporary late-life love affair. Led by a cast of varied, in-depth characters whose stories intersect surprisingly, with plenty of passion and humour, Love's Register is a coming-of-age family saga and modern psycho-logical novel that explores the way we live now.
The Dream Speaks Back is a triple autobiography, bringing together the personal memories and dream-fictions of three creative individuals: · Sue Hampton, adult/children's author with 32 published books, three of them praised by Michael Morpurgo, and ambassador for Alopecia UK. · Cy Henty, comedian, stage/screen writer & mental health worker, has toured with Russell Brand and played major roles in seven of Pat Higgins' films . · Leslie Tate, UEA graduate, author of three novels and a binary memoir now turned into an award-winning film. As life-writing, The Dream Speaks Back describes growing up in unusual families, how it feels to be 'different', and the adult search for the inner child. As an imaginative journey, it explores gender and mental health issues. It's also a very funny portrait of working in the arts, full of crazy characters, their ups and downs, and their stories.
HEAVEN'S RAGE is an imaginative autobiography. Reporting on feelings people don't usually own up to, Leslie Tate explores addiction, cross-dressing and the hidden sides of families. Writing lyrically, he brings together stories of bullying, childhood dreams, thwarted creativity and late-life illness, discovering at their core the transformative power of words to rewire the brain and reconnect with life.
