Description
Donald's wife Belinda died. So he tried to kill himself. But it didn’t work out the way he planned.
Grief-stricken and still alive, he reluctantly returns to his job as a scriptwriter on a regional TV station. But then an idea comes up that might just save him – and Belinda's legacy.
The Wall in the Head is a love story and a black comedy – about bad architecture and bad TV, bad jokes and bad luck. Set among our fading brutalist behemoths, it's about grand plans and failures, hope and the human spirit. But mostly, it’s about endings.
Advance Praise
'An incredibly funny and moving book. You’d be a fool to miss it.’ – Jon Bounds, author of Pier Review
‘A funny, tragic, satirical and media-saturated story about buildings and loss. Sometimes brutalist but never brutal.’ – David Quantick, author of The Mule
'Local TV, concrete and Birmingham – what more could one want? Christopher Beanland has just invented the new genre of Brutalist Noir. I love this funny and moving tale of grief for lost love, lost dreams and lost buildings.' – Catherine O'Flynn, author of What Was Lost and The News Where You Are
