Escape Reality

by Various Authors
Published by Fuzzy Flamingo

At a time when the news headlines are dominated by soaring death rates and days are full of Zoom meetings – for both work and leisure – an author collective is hoping to provide consumers with a bit of escapism with a collection of whimsical stories. From a humorous account of a day in lockdown in ‘A Day in the Life of an Outdoor Cat’ by Lauren Raybould, to an exhilarating thriller of mums on the run in ‘The Call’ by Tania Taylor and a romance with a difference against a beautiful backdrop in ‘This Is Africa’ by Zoe Brooks, all genres and tastes are catered for.

Organiser Jen Parker, founder and CEO of Fuzzy Flamingo, an editorial and design house, donated her services to this project to provide people with some positivity during these troubling times.

“I donated over £1000-worth of my publishing services for this project and I couldn’t be happier! I wanted to do something to help, and I’ve always found reading books to be the best form of escapism. I wanted to offer readers the same with this anthology – so put a call out for contributions just over a month ago. 22 women, ranging from the age of 11 to the retired, have written short stories of a range of genres for this anthology. They have been wonderful to work with and I can’t wait to share their writing,” comments Jen, Fuzzy Flamingo.

Experienced readers and book lovers will find distraction, escapism and, above all, hope within these pages.

William Flint

Leicester’s Classical Architect

by Mark Mitchley
Published by Fuzzy Flamingo
Price: £12.99

‘Aimiable, unassuming and esteemed’

William Flint was an architect in Leicester helping to set the landscape of the town during the mid-Nineteenth Century. He designed in the Classical style and much of his work still exists. He is rather unsung, and most of the research for this book appears in print for the first time, but his influence on Leicester and how it looks and his further influence through his pupils is considerable. The book contains a biography of the man and then looks at his two pupil masters; his two partners; his four pupils and has a survey of his work including a description of his buildings.

Whilst Flint was an amiable, unassuming and esteemed man, the people that surround him are colourful. His first pupil master died by falling out his window and was found dead frozen to the ground. His first partner led a Dickensian life of crime as an utterer of forged cheques and died en route to Broadmoor. His third pupil saw himself as an inventor and put forward proposals to canalise the streets of Leicester with wooden troughs and build an undersea channel tunnel. His last pupil was in turn master to Ernest Gimson, father of the English Arts and Crafts movement.

There is a sense of civic and commercial Victorian noise through the inclusion of facts about Flint’s clients and their businesses and how they are connected to each other. The book is about William Flint, of course, but it is also about the buildings and the people that used and lived in them.
