On First Name Terms with Angels
Autor Ross Friday, Trafford Publishingen Limba Engleză Paperback
It's Christmas Eve in the city. The streets are alive with crowds, excitedly bustling below the thousands of fairy lights and panicking about tomorrow like they didn't know it was coming, whilst others are literally wishing it wouldn't. These total strangers have just one thing in common... that what had been the loneliest night of the year had now become the loneliest night of their lives.
Alone and afraid they sink deeper into their own private chasms until there appears to be only one way out. But when their very different worlds collide, mere coincidences mount until even the most cynical amongst them can only interpret the escalating events as fate and it's undeniable that miracles can exist, everything happens for a reason and whatever life's worth, it's at least worth living.
" An inventive, poignant, witty and highly original masterpiece that refuses to be confined by the restraints of any conventional genre..."
" ... at times as macabre as it is heartbreaking but ultimately so life affirming it could actually alter the way you look at the world; I defy anyone to remain emotionally unaffected."

Notă biografică
Ross was born in 1978 and raised in Kent, England. He grew up discovering a natural flare for art and accomplished sporting success at a national level before finishing his education. He flirted with several vocations but found a creative outlet in the form of writing songs which not only received critical acclaim, but also achieved regular radio airplay. This eventually led to him performing alongside major stars at high profile events before he was forced to establish a more conventional career.
It wasn't until he seized an opportunity reporting for a regional newspaper that his previously hidden writing ability was discovered; it made the perfect partner to his vivid imagination and he set about creating a literary work of total originality. By interweaving wonderfully flawed characters and inventive scenarios around his elaborate and highly unconventional central story, his debut as a novelist impresses on every level and stands tall as a thought provoking, emotionally complex example of fiction that can be applied to life.
