Ben Mc Laughlin paints cinematic pictures steeped in ambiguous atmosphere & emotion. His works suggest human alienation, presenting everyday subjects dislocated through cropping & unusual viewpoints. The titles themselves, drawn from newspapers, the radio, crossword puzzles & other equally unexpected sources, confront the spectator with conundrums that deepen the sense of uncertainty. In this, the first in-depth study of the artist's work, James Hamilton examines the eclectic influences & complex iconography that have shaped these critically acclaimed paintings, & identifies the alchemical wit & spontaneity that Mc Laughlin brings to bear on the seemingly mundane in modern life. ...

A luminous & bewitching debut novel that is perfect for fans of Angela Carter. Set in Victorian London, it follows the fortunes of Eve, the Lion-Faced Girl & Abel, the Flayed Man. A magical realism delight. Before Eve is born, her mother goes to the circus. She buys a penny twist of coloured sugar & settles down to watch the heart-stopping main attraction: a lion, billed as a monster from the savage heart of Africa. Mama swears she hears the lion sigh, just before it leaps...and nine months later when Eve is born, the story goes, she doesn't cry
- she meows & licks her paws. When Abel is pulled from the stinking Thames, the mudlarks are sure he is long dead. As they search his pockets to divvy up the treasure, his eyes crack open & he coughs up a stream of black water. But how has he survived a week in that thick stew of human waste? Cast out by Victorian society, Eve & Abel find succour from an unlikely source. They soar to fame as The Lion Faced Girl & The Flayed Man, star performers in Professor Josiah Arroner's Palace of Curiosities. & there begins a journey that will entwine their fates forever.
