I am beyond excited to have received a proof of Shy Creatures by Clare Chambers whose writing I am passionate about. 🎉Published in late August by W&N Alexa von Hirschberg Lovely cover too
Started this last night and oh it is so good already. Of course it is - it’s Clare Chambers. #SmallPleasures was a highlight of my 2022. #ShyCreatures is shaping up to be everything I hoped for and more. Thanks for the gorgeous proof, W&N
Really enjoyed this about one of my favourite books of recent years. Do read Clare Chambers if you haven’t already - I’ve just read Learning to Swim which I also loved bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Filled with awe and optimism watching those 8 young geniuses on #UniversityChallenge . Amol Rajan brought some great “favourite teacher” energy to the role too!
What a lovely bookish March I've had, producing Bookclub for Radio 4, and the international version for World Service, with wise women writers. First up, here's Clare Chambers talking all things Small Pleasures

Tracy Chevalier As you know, I was at a loss as to what to read after your wonderful novel, A Single Thread. But I’ve just started reading your recommendation, Small Pleasures by Clare Chambers And it’s wonderful! Thanks to Waterford Libraries !!
I’m very excited to see the US cover for Shy Creatures, here with the UK version. They make a lovely couple. Badgers! Birds! Tea! Thanks to Chevonne Elbourne for the artwork. William Morrow Mariner Books
'Levitation for Beginners transported me right back to my '70s schooldays. The clannishness and micro-cruelties of 10-year-old girls were brilliantly authentic . . . a deliciously unsettling read'
