📖 Blurred Faces by Allan Radcliffe (@allanradcliffe.bsky.social), a gorgeously poignant literary novel about second chances and queer connection, set over a few days in rain-soaked Edinburgh. The Sunday Post called it ‘exquisite... tender and romantic and yet searing with gritty reality’ 🩵💚

I'm grateful to James Cocker of purplespider.com for his work on the site, with designs by the talented Corinne Walker. Feel free to have a browse and drop me a line! 😍 allanradcliffe.co.uk
