LOCaL utho John Fowle hs publshed hs
ltest novel.
John, who lives in Gayton, has penned Everton or
What which is based on his experiences as a young
man in Liverpool in the 1960s.
Its a follow up to his rst
book called Growing
up in Liverpool before
Beatlemania which was
based on his teenagediaries of the time.
Said John: Quite a
number of people asked
me to do a follow-up,
but I had not kept any
more diaries. Therefore,
I decided to write this
latest book as a novel, with the story being inuenced by
personal experiences, but, being ction, it gives the author
poetic licence.
Like many youngsters, the formative years were
inuenced by music,and football, and many men will
identify with this tale, set at the beginning of the Sixties.
Decisions
John was born in Liverpool in 1944, brought up in Walton,
and attended the Liverpool Collegiate Grammar School.
Now retired, he has lived in Gayton for 32 years.
His latest novel follows a year in the life of a 16/17-year-old young man who is studying A levels at school, is a
brilliant footballer with ambitions to play for Everton and is
also a singer in a rock group about to make a record. On
the brink of manhood, he faces three paths of where his
life is going to take him: education, pop music or football.
John jokingly added: This is the 4th book I have
published, and I think Steven Speilberg has snapped up
the lm rights, if he can get Robert Redford to play me
now, and Johnny Depp as me as a teenager!

BOOK REVIEWS:
WHaTS NeW iN THe BOOK WORLdBY ELEANOR DAVIES, FROM LINGHAMS BOOKSTORE, HESWALL
General Fiction: Pigeon English by Stephen Kelman
Recently emigrated from Ghana to one of Londons enormous housing projects, young
Harrison Opuku nds wonder in his new and ever-expanding world. Then one of his
classmates, a boy known for his crazy basketball skills, seemed to have been murdered
for his dinner. Armed with a pair of camouage binoculars and detective techniques
absorbed from television shows like CSI, Harri and his best friend, Dean, plot to bring
the perpetrator to justice. Told in Harris infectious voice and multicultural slang, Pigeon
English follows in the tradition of our great novels of friendship and adventure.
Based on the Damilola Taylor murder case, this wonderful funny, sad, deep book by
a brand new author has already been shortlisted for this years Booker Prize. I foundit completely gripping from the rst page to the jaw-dropping nal sentence- which
probably means it wont win! But I defy anyone not to love it.
Biography: Back from the Brink: 1,000 Days at Number 11
by Alistair Darling
In the summer of late 2007, shares of Northern Rock went into
free-fall causing a run on the bank - the rst since the Great
Depression. Northern Rock was only the rst: in the ensuing
months, Alistair Darling stood rm in the eye of this perfect storm -
all over the world nancial institutions thought too big to fail were
falling prey to the lethal toxicity of the US sub-prime mortgage
market. Back from the Brink tells the gripping story of one
thousand days of crisis. The book describes how, as chancellor, he
attended all night meetings at the White House, interspersed with
confrontations with the titans of international banking; as readers,
we nd ourselves in the rooms where the destinies of millions
weighed heavily on the shoulders of a few. Back from the Brink
is a gripping and immediate account of an unprecedented global nancial catastrophe.
Alistair Darlings knowledge and understanding make this not only a unique perspective
on the events that rocked global capitalism, but a vital and fascinating historical
document.
Cookery: Ramsays Best MenusGordon Ramsays last TV series, The F Word, culminated in a competition to nd
the nations favourite local restaurant. His new series, Ramsays Best Restaurants,
continues this theme, focusing on the countrys favourite international cuisines: Italian,
French, Spanish, Mediterranean, British, Chinese, Indian, Moroccan, Mexican and
Middle Eastern etc etc. To complement the series Gordon has here selected not just his
favourite menus from these cuisines, but also the perfect Spring, Summer, Autumn and
Winter menus. His 52 chosen menus, comprising 156 recipes for starters, main courses
and desserts, are displayed in such a way, on sliced pages, that the reader can mix and
match to create their own favourite menu for any occasion and any time of year. The
result is an incredible 140,000 different menu choices in stunning colour photography.Mouthwatering!
