AKDigital presents the new novel by Matthew Tree: SNUG
05/04/2013Matthew Tree was born in London but has lived in Barcelona since 1984. For literary reasons of his own, in 1990 he stopped writing in English and switched to Catalan, in which language he has published ten books. He has published in English a collection of articles titled “Barcelona, Catalonia. A View from the Inside” and now he presents us with a novel written in English; “SNUG”, published through this agency’s AKDigital project in Amazon for KINDLE and Print on Demand format. "An utterly compelling, uncompromising, visceral and unflinching look at racism, anti-Semitism and the legacy of colonialism. The adult protagonists are drawn with a deft accuracy and the resultant emotional impact of a heat seeking missile. The book bewitches the reader...it is touching, deeply moving and very funny." KS Lewkowicz - composer and lyricist of Goodbye Barcelona and Release The Beat. Amazon.com (Kindle and PoD)
