Not so much a champagne toast as a feast of fruit here at Telegram towers as we celebrate winning the British Book Industry Awards 2009 Nibbie for Diversity in Literature

"Impressively multilingual, multicultural and international, with employment policies genuinely supporting diversity." BBIAs 2009

Absolutely!

Maggie Gee's new novel My Driver has been getting some great reviews lately but if you still need convincing that have a read of the first two chapters here and then try to resist the urge to buy...

Telegram are hugely excited to be publishing the new novel from Pauline Melville, Eating Air. Pauline has written 2 short story collections, of which Shape-shifter won the Guardian Fiction Prize in 1990. Her first novel, The Ventriloquists Tale, won the Whitbread First Novel Award in 1997 and was shortlisted in 1998 for the Orange Prize. Eating Air will be published in September 2009 and I can exclusively offer a sneaky peak at the first couple of chapters before anyone else has seen it.

2010 isn't so far off, and we're already getting excited about our line-up. Join our hype by reading the first chapter from the debut by Mischa Hiller: Sabra Zoo. It's currently scheduled for Spring 2010. We hope you like it...
