Join us at Mostly Books on Thursday 1st June, 7pm, for an evening with Bobby Palmer as he discusses his bestselling debut novel, Isaac and the egg.

When Isaac Addy walks into the woods on the worst day of his life and finds something extraordinary there, he already knows he’s going to take it home. A grieving Isaac and his curious new friend are unlikely companions. They don’t even speak the same language. But their chance encounter will transform Isaac’s life in ways he cannot yet imagine. And maybe he will finally be able to tell the truth. Sometimes, to get out of the woods, you have to go into them. Isaac and the egg is one of the most hopeful, honest and wildly imaginative novels you will ever read.
