Narrative Toward Books The Fell

In an unspecified time and location, an unnamed boy is living what he feels to be an idyllic life in the faded and peeling Lido where his father is a lifeguard. He idolises his father – never more so than when he saves the life of a suicidal man – and he comes to believe that heroism is all.

The arrest of his sister Lilly later that summer brings the halcyon days to an abrupt end, and his family is torn apart, with Lilly sent to jail and the boy set to a boarding house for dysfunctional boys, far away from his home – The Fell. The boys in the home become his family and they band together against their enemies, both real and imagined, and they become family.

The boy sees the world and his place in it through a unique lens. He meets ghosts, hears voices and battles his fears. What he never does, however, is question his own version of reality.

When the boy's fear and hatred of authority come to a head, everything is thrown into disarray and his action lead him to run from the Fell. And run, and run . . .

Critique About Books The Fell

The Fell is the real deal. It caught me from page one, and as soon as I picked up the beat of the voice I was hooked. This a very clever piece of story telling.I am 22 years old, male, studying literature at university and when I was at school, I used to board. More relevant than that, I was young (!) and faced the challenges of youth and I still do. The Fell resonates, it moves and entertains. It is entirely, perfectly authentic. The Fell will shock, disturb, inspire, inform, entertain

Ambitious and successful, by and large. Not easy to read. Very moving.

Robert Jenkins potent story of love, loss and power told through the lens of an unnamed teenage boy encourages the reader to think critically about the power relationships between adults and young people. On the boys journey to manhood Robert invites the reader to observe the protagonists widening experience of love as the story shifts from family to friends to early romantic love. At times graphic and brutal, but also full of love, warmth, humour and hope this gripping story engages every

4 for most of the read, with moments of absolute brilliance:"His own words seemed to make him angry and he stiffened and I knew I was looking straight at madness and madness isnt a monster and it isnt a stranger and its right there in the room and just a twitch away from all of us always and it can have high cheekbones and almond eyes and a strong jaw and sometimes it just comes from the corner of the room like a coil of soft smoke and you cant stop it or fight it or waft it away..."How to

This book should be on every creative writing curriculum This is a fabulous book and should be on every creative writing curriculum. Jenkins takes the reader deep inside the troubled head of the narrator and creates an entirely absorbing world. The writing itself is incredibly clever, funny, sad, disturbing and uplifting. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys immersive reading.

Robert Jenkins was born and raised in Walthamstow, East London. Running wild was his heritage but he also wrote plays for the stage, novels and short stories. He wrote poetry from a young age and read them in the early days of stand-up poetry nights in London pubs. Straddling realities can happen in great cities. He travelled the world with his wife and children and back at home lived and worked

The opening chapter is outstanding, a powerful stream-of-consciousness which sets the characters and place. I love it. I did initially struggle with the following chapters as the tale darkened and became more fragmented, but it cleverly follows the fractured psyche of the unnamed narrator. Damaged, hearttwarming and challenging - these characters will haunt you.
