For fans of emotional stories about family and ambition and set in the rich history of Liverpool. We are very pleased to welcome him to Bookseller Crow to chat about ANFIELD ROAD with the author Keiran Goddard.As Conor Sterling is about to turn 18, he wrestles with the tough choice to go to art college or look after his sick, dominating grandmother? While life seems to move faster, he falls for a West-Indian girl who his grandmother disapproves of. Conor is torn between doing the right thing for him or submitting to the will of his crazy grandmother. What follows is a funny and poignant coming of age story set in Liverpool in 1989.
