Leschenault Press Beyond The Title: The Yearbook
Beyond The Title is based on the entertainment platform and podcast of the same name, created by the writer, Josh Barry. Despite having Athetoid Cerebral Palsy, which has severely impacted his mobility and speech, Josh and his team have conducted interviews with numerous remarkable showbiz personalities over the last four years. These interviews have formed a catalogue of insights from the breadth of the arts that capture the essences of British entertainment, past and present. In this book, we get a snapshot of the careers of some of the most distinguished personalities of the latter part of the twentieth century, together with a cultural breakdown of the world in which they live. It offers a contextual analysis of where these figures sit in the nation's psyche, and an exploration of their unique journeys to becoming some of Britain's biggest stars. In short, this is the story of light entertainment through the eyes of some of its most recognisable faces.

Leschenault Press Four Short Stories
From the author of 'Chasing Shadows', 'Arthur's Dead' and 'A Letter to a Lucky Man'. This fourth book from Northern Ireland based writer, Thomas Jobling, is a short step away from his normal nautical driven novels. Rather, this piece of work contains four stand alone short stories connected only by his particular style of character building and a focus on the individual's ability to overcome adversity. FIRST TIMER - Darren taking virgin steps into the world of after-office parties! INCIDENT at TWISTED ELBOW - Will Abernethy and Phil Shawcross are joint owners of a race car attempting to win the 'Twisted Elbow' hill climb. Will thinks the car's performance is an issue, but young Shawcross has other things on his mind. LEAP of FAITH - While Sandy Hayes awaits the arrival of the Scottish ferry that will once more transport him from his hometown, he reminisces about his boyhood days and one in particular. When the teenage Sandy rushed to catch another ferry, a much smaller one that already held Siobhan, the girl of his dreams... and Billy, his rival in love. A NOT SO TENDER TRAP - Misogyny, it seems, is a word yet to be invented in the Marbella party-town where so many ex-pats have congregated.
