A powerful and poetic novel from the multi-award-winning author of
Tangleweed and Brine Ces longs to be a tattoo artist and embroider
skin with beautiful images. But for now she's just trying to reach
adulthood without falling apart. Powerful, poetic and disturbing,
Needlework is a girl's meditation on her efforts to maintain her
bodily and spiritual integrity in the face of abuse, violation and
neglect. 'Reading Needlework is similar to getting your first
tattoo - it's searing, often painful, but it is an experience
you'll never forget.' - Louise O'Neill, author of The Surface
Breaks and Asking For It 'Needlework is a powerful novel that
deserves to be read.' - Sarah Crossan, author of One and We Come
Apart 'I loved Deirdre Sullivan's Needlework, a novel that is just
as sharp and precise as its title suggests.' - Doireann Ni Ghriofa,
poet 'A modern, broken fairy tale that gets under your skin.' -
Tara Flynn, author and comedian

Fifteen-year-old Ilyas is under pressure from everyone: GCSE's are looming and his teachers just won't let up, his dad wants him to join the family business and his mates don't care about any of it. There's no space in Ilyas' life to just be a teenager.
Serving detention one day, Ilyas finds a kindred spirit in Kelly Matthews, who is fed up with being pigeonholed as the good girl, and their friendship blows the social strata of high school wide open. But when Kelly catches the eye of one of the local bad boys, Imran, he decides to seduce her for a bet – and Ilyas is faced with losing the only person who understands him. Standing up to Imran puts Ilyas' family at risk, but it's time for him to be the superhero he draws in his comic-books, and go kick the moon.
Kick the Moon, is Muhammad Khan's explosive second novel, with original comic-book art from Amrit Birdi, bestselling illustrator of Username:Evie.
