Flames and funerals circus feats and seduction neighbours and nakedness: Tracy Chevalier's Burning Bright sparkles with historical drama. London 1792. The Kellaways move from familiar rural Dorset to the tumult of a cramped unforgiving city. They are leaving behind a terrible loss a blow that only a completely new life may soften. Against the backdrop of a city jittery over the increasingly bloody French Revolution a surprising bond forms between Jem the youngest Kellaway boy and streetwise Londoner Maggie Butterfield. Their friendship takes a dramatic turn when they become entangled in the life of their neighbour the printer poet and radical William Blake. He is a guiding spirit as Jem and Maggie navigate the unpredictable exhilarating passage from innocence to experience. Their journey inspires one of Blake's most entrancing works. Georgian London is recreated as vividly in Burning Bright as 17th-century Delft was in Tracy Chevalier's bestselling masterpiece Girl with a Pearl Earring. This novel is perfect for fans of Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus and Essie Fox's Somnambulist.
"Alright, so if you're talking about the most popular stomping grounds for shoppers in the UK, you've got a pretty solid line-up, haven't you? Obviously, the big supermarket players like Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Asda are absolute giants when it comes to everyday essentials and groceries – everyone's in there most weeks, whether they like it or not! But beyond the food aisles, places like Amazon UK pretty much dominate the online scene for everything from books to gadgets to a new kettle, making them a go-to for millions looking for convenience and, usually, decent Burning Bright prices. Then you've got your reliable high street names: Marks & Spencer for quality bits and those legendary Percy Pigs, Next for fashion and homeware that’s always on point, and John Lewis for just about anything fancy you could imagine, known for their cracking customer service. Don't forget Boots if you're after health and beauty stuff or a quick prescription, or Currys for all your electronics needs, from giant TVs to tiny headphones. Even places like B&Q and Wickes get a massive look-in for anyone doing DIY, and Primark still pulls in crowds looking for an absolute bargain. It's a real mix of online giants, supermarket stalwarts, and high street heroes, but these are definitely the ones most people are hitting up regularly for their retail therapy! " - Bargainplace UK
