Summary

The lives of teenage brothers Nicky and Kenny told in three powerful and moving stories by Carnegie Shortlisted author Anthony McGowan.

The Truth of Things Summary

The Truth of Things by Anthony McGowan

All of the bad things that were in my mind - the bad memories, the regrets, the pain - they all got blown away by the wind and by Kenny's laughter.


Life is pretty tough for Nicky and Kenny. Their mum is gone and their dad has had his troubles. Money is tight and people can be cruel about Kenny's learning difficulties. But through it all, the brothers stick together, sharing adventures and their love of the natural world, while finding humour in the most difficult of circumstances.

A stunning collected edition of Anthony McGowan's critically acclaimed novellas Brock, Pike and Rook.

The Truth of Things Reviews

Never have three sparsely written novellas packed such an emotional punch. Not a word is wasted and, for me, they are the absolute definition of the word `classic' - Phil Earle, The Guardian
