Longlisted for the Guardian Not the Booker prize 2016 'William
Thacker is a name you will hear a lot more often.' -- Matt Haig,
author 'Remarkable.' -- Caroline Smailes, author 'This is bloody
brilliant.' -- Heydon Prowse, writer of the Bafta-winning The
Revolution Will Be Televised There's a problem with Barrow, but it
can be fixed. You just need to change the name to Birdseye.
Birdseye-in-Furness... Miles Platting is pulled from the ruins of a
shipwreck into a world in which no one will speak to him. The
founder of Lingua Franca - a naming rights agency committed to
renaming every UK town after a corporate sponsor - Miles recounts
the story of his quest for linguistic supremacy to anyone who'll
listen. Confined to his hospital bed in a deathly quiet ward, Miles
seeks to find his colleagues and reunite with his true love. But in
doing so, Miles must confront his deepest held convictions and
consider, what's in a name? in a world where the spoken word has
been replaced with silence.
