Tales of the Riverbank

A collection of short stories inspired by Westminster-the seat of British government and power for hundreds of years.

From the lobbyist for an international high technology corporation to the disillusioned ex-Minister, and from the wannabe Gonzo journalist to the tired and emotional old MP, everyone has their tales to tell, even though they might be better left untold.

In this entertaining and frequently absurd debut novel set in and around Westminster, Whitehall and Parliament, Jerry Fishenden creates a comic, sweary, wacky and sometimes poignant assortment of interweaving tales featuring an eccentric cast of characters and events.

Eye-watering illustrations by Clive Edwards.
