Good morning. It& #39;s Friday. Here& #39;s a thread of books published by independent publishers we think are brilliant and often overlooked, plucked off Kit& #39;s bookshelves at home:
Wounding by @heidipearljames, published by @Ofmooseandmen. A beautiful study of what is expected of women in society.

Sealed by @NaomiBooth published by @DeadInkBooks. Eco-horror at its finest. A fine bit of publishing by our enemies.

Whatever Happened to Harold Absalon by @SimonOkotie, published by @saltpublishing. A wonderful, tangential, discursive novel set on a few stops on a bus.

Resolution Way by Carl Neville, published by @RepeaterBooks. Probably the best novel written in the last 10 years (Kit is writing this thread obvs, Gary would say it was some punk book probably).

The Large Door (badum tish!) by @Tiny_Camels, published by @bhousepress. An excellent novel from a much underrated writer, sexy, smart, full of theory but in a good understandable way.

That& #39;s it! Support independents because they are publishing the best work out there; innovative, risk taking, rewarding, pushing the frontier of literature and doing all on minuscule budgets and with no cookery books to fund big advance dalliances to over-baked writers.
