Staying On by C M Taylor

Staying On by C M Taylor

A funny, timely and touching novel exploring the impact of Brexit on retired British expats living in Spain

‘Told with humour and enormous compassion, this is a beguiling story about broken people who have all the feelings and none of the wordsUtterly captivating’ Damien Owens, author of Married to a Cave Man and Dead Cat Bounce

‘C.M. Taylor's Staying On is a trademark sweet-and-sour Mike Leigh film in novel form. As well as a fictional retread of Joe Cawley's More Ketchup than Salsa. Updating both to our worrying post-Brexit times where the shifting of boundaries forces us to question where we truly feel we belong’ Matthew Hirtes, author of Going Local in Gran Canaria

'A wry take on expat life, astutely observed and deftly drawn. Peppered with humour, yet poignant and as topical as it's revealing' Peter Kerr, bestselling author of the award-winning Snowball Oranges series

'A timely tale about expats braving the Brexit tidal wave in rural Spain. I raced through this warm-hearted, warts-and-all portrayal of a broken family, its members fighting to love one another while haunted by the past and afraid of what the future holds. Funny and thought-provoking; an ideal summer read' S .D. Robertson author of Time to Say Goodbye

‘Beautifully written by an author who's obviously a keen observer of people... you will love it’ Bookbag
