Think Lord of the Flies but with girls… When the world ends, the pupils of Near School for Girls are forced to fend for themselves on an isolated Scottish island with limited resources, no adults, and no prospect of rescue. As the only boy present, Stephen Ballantyne has to be particularly wary of shifting politics and allegiances as the girls find a way to survive in this new and brutal world. Birdwatching at the End of the World is the debut genre novel from critically acclaimed author G.W. Dexter, who already has three mainstream novels to his credit. “…our narrator is cool, sardonic and rather laid back. It’s not a comedy though… Birdwatching At The End Of The World is an interesting and entertaining read that I highly recommend.” – Sfcrowsnest Praise for the author’s previous work: “Dexter couldn't write a phoney sentence if he tried.” – Sunday Telegraph “There are a few books that try to be funny about literature and don't ever really get it right; Dexter always does.” – The Guardian “Dexter knows the nation's tastes better than anyone.” – Daily Telegraph For The Oxford Despoiler “Sheer comic genius.” – Michael Bywater, author of Lost Worlds For The Oxford Despoiler “Wonderful... The whole thing is a delight.” – Sunday Telegraph “The language is precise, witty, and an excellent homage to the period.” – The Chap Birdwatching at the End of the World is available as an A5 paperback and as a Signed Limited Edition Hardback, each copy signed by the author and limited to just 50 numbered copies. |
