The fabulous people at Norwich's Future Radio asked me to pop in and talk about my latest book on the Pride Live programme. I'm becoming quite a regular on the show and they very generously allow me to plug my work shamelessly. You can hear me reading from the book here ...
When Jack Scott and his Civil Partner, Liam, moved to Turkey nothing could prepare them for what was to come – heatstroke, frostbite, biblical floods, Byzantine red tape, lazy censorship, blackouts, bugs from Hell, rancid drains, lunatic drivers, dirty politics, spring-loaded waiters, jaw-dropping sunsets, kindness, generosity and acceptance. Have you ever wondered what it’s really like to pitch your tent in a foreign field, particularly a Muslim one? Guidebooks and travelogues only go so far and, these days, many of them offer second hand accounts. To get a genuine insider’s feel, you need to ask someone who’s been there, done that and bought the fake designer tee-shirts. I'm a little bit thrilled. Turkey, the Raw Guide is number 1 on the Amazon Kindle Store (UK) in Middle East Travel and number 7 in Turkey Travel. Fabulous.
