Liverpool 1981. As the city burns during inner city riots, Paul
meets two people who will change his life: Nadezhda, an elusive
poet who has fallen out of fashion; and her daughter Sarah, with
whom he shares an instant connection. As the summer reaches its
climax his feelings for both are tested amidst secrets, lies and
the unravelling of Nadezhda's past. It is an experience that will
define the rest of his life. The Outsiders moves from early-80s
Liverpool, via Nadezhda's clandestine background in war-torn
Europe, through to the present day, taking in the global and local
events that shape all three characters. In a powerful story of
hidden histories, lost loves and painful truths ambitiously told
against the backdrop of Liverpool's fall and rise, James Corbett's
enthralling debut novel explores the complexities of human history
and how individual perspectives of the past shape everyone's
present.
