James Goodhand lives in Surrey with his wife and young son. A mechanic by day, much of his work has been written at an oil-stained workbench whilst ignoring a queue of broken cars in need of his attention. James is also a keen musician, regularly gigging as a rhythm and blues pianist.
Staggeringly good . . . had me hanging on every word -- Louisa Reid, author of Wrecked and Lies Like Love Man Down is truly special. A love letter to youth, life, love and hope, it's utterly compelling, completely original and will undoubtedly be one of the standout books of 2022. An absolute must read. * Adam Simcox, author of The Dying Squad * Good books make you feel something. Great books change the way you feel about everything. Man Down is a great book. No one is writing about young men's lives with as much warmth, empathy and humour as James Goodhand is right now. -- Samuel Pollen, author of The Year I Didn't Eat An excellent look at what it means to 'be a man' amid a culture of peer pressure and toxic masculinity while navigating desire and friendship. Loved it. * Anna Stevens, author of Godblind * Emotionally complex, dark and clever - a very unexpected, thoughtful and original book. I can honestly think of no other YA quite like it. * Gina Blaxill, author of Saving Silence * A gritty, gripping tale of a young man searching for meaning in a life that's far from ordinary. * Malcolm Duffy, author of Sofa Surfer *
