The debut novel from Andy Howden

Long-listed for the Exeter Novel Prize, Melting in the Middle is a literary comedy about redemption, second chances – and chocolate - played out amid the madness of modern life.

“The dialogue zips along at a pace that keeps the reader on their toes without running out of breath.”

— Ian McMillan, poet, author and presenter of The Verb on BBC Radio 3
