Sent to a high-security criminal facility, she languishes for six years until the arrival of psychotherapist Theo Faber, who is convinced he can get Alicia to speak and uncover the motive for the murder. But since that night, she has not uttered a word – neither about the killing nor anything else – and there appears to be no obvious reason for the attack. The Silent PatientĪcclaimed artist Alicia Berenson has killed her husband, shooting him five times at their family home. With chapters on sharpening and spreading your message, PR, direct action, and tips on the law and fundraising, the book is essential reading for anyone looking to start a grassroots campaign – and useful bedtime reading for some of our political parties too. How to Be an ActivistĬampaigner and journalist Holburn advises on all aspects of political and social activism, from finding your tribe to creating meaningful change. A warm-hearted and entertaining debut, On the Up continues the trend for “up lit” novels about the benefits of close-knit neighbourhoods. But when the estate comes under threat from developers, Sylvia discovers she cares about her community more than she had realised and decides to take a stand. Beset by noisy neighbours and antisocial behaviour, she daydreams about the leafy surroundings of her childhood. Sylvia lives with her partner and two children in a run-down block of flats in east London.
